<p>[QUOTE=&quot;James Conrad, post: 3400080, member: 5066&quot;]There is a &quot;grunge&quot; movement in the USA, although at one time it was all the rage, it has lost a lot of steam in the past few years and for good reason.</p><p>The grunge movement was inadvertently started by John T Kirk, an obscure furniture scholar who wrote a book in the 1970s with a chapter titled &quot;Buy it Ratty and Leave it Alone&quot;.</p><p>Kirk was talking about PAINTED surfaces not clear finished surfaces but, you know America, some people figured out a way to make a buck off of &quot;Filthy Furniture, A New Status Symbol&quot;, and &quot;Collecting, Today&#039;s Art Lesson: Grime Pays,&quot;.</p><p>In 2000 Kirk wrote an article commenting on the grunge movement he had started 30 years before.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
