I’m A FOOL 4U. GINA I ♥ U
Somebody must have had a major crush on Gina to go to the effort of creating this massive, brightly-coloured graffiti on a disused highway overpass here in Seattle, that reads “I’m A FOOL 4U. GINA I ♥ U“
Usually when someone goes to the effort of creating a personal message this large and detailed it’s to ask for their sweetheart’s hand in marriage, as we’ve seen several times before. In this case however we have a simple dedication of love1 executed on an impressively grand scale - which tells us that whoever executed this artwork must really ♥ Gina!
So, who is Gina, and is she still with the person who “hearted” her so much?
Thanks to David Leech.

Freelove on the Freelove freeway…
I think the ramps are the ones referred to in this article.
Alot of kayakers all around here…

Here is a pretty great shot of a fountain.

Looks like one car is losing a lot of oil: Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
And something that looks like an explosion at what apparently is a university building: Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
(or would they be creating a black hole?)
As exciting as it would be if they were creating a black hole, Live maps seems to indicate that a glass awning is the source of the light that dr.R. found.

Besides, everyone knows that light can’t escape a black hole!
No light from a black hole, point taken.
You don’t *really* believe that car is losing that much oil, I hope?
Those are in fact the Ghost Ramps. I was there a couple of months ago and the “Gina” writing was gone.
I took some ground level shots:

I remember when this was first spotted by local news helicopters going to another story. They made it the fluff piece at the end of the newscast. At that time though it was only GINA I ♥ U, the “I’m a fool 4U” must have been added later.
I think this is the Gina they mean

the graffiti could only be viewed from air. Unless someone riding a helicopter, no one could clearly see it. my wild guess is that the “fool” is someone who worked in the satellite company and knows when it will take the shot.
