No I don't lose sleep over this, but occasionally I see fountains and they are filled with loose change and I know what the point is supposed to be and it's probably a bunch of little kids doing it, but I just shake my head when I walk by and think about what a load of shit it is.
Your thoughts?

If it's pennies or nickels I don't see anything wrong with it. But then I'm a romantic at heart, and have fond memories of fountains and coins, not to mention an affection for the movie Three Coins in the Fountain, which I still need to see in widescreen.

Depends. That change can be real bad if there are fish in the water and I have heard of them messing up the filtration/pumps on other ones. So generally I frown upon it because in essence many times its basically ignorant vandalism. If it's a designed wishing well, go for it. If not don't.

I used to toss pennies in all the time as a kid.
Now I generally don't carry cash on me of any kind so... I don't...
but a penny here or there isn't going to break the bank.

If there are fish in the pond? No.
If it is a fountain made specifically for this? Sure, go for it.
