Oh no. That can't be real. No public entity could be that ignorant.

Actually it could be real -- I've seen several now that have been hacked with "interesting" messages / alerts put in place......

We had to buy and use a pen in grammar school. It was the Sheaffer pen that used the replacement ink cartridges. Lot's of messes during the years when they would rupture or spill during replacement. This was catholic schools and I guess they were priming us for the future.

Ooohhhhh, hacked ! I had no idea that could be going on, ostensibly, with such signs. Well, that one is pretty tame, then, considering what could be said by enterprising and spaced-out hooligans. :mrgreen:

You might notice the rather sizeable chain securing both the signs by side of the road to their location, but also securing the control boxes, :wink:

The one I saw a while back driving with my daughter on a Sunday morning was warning: Danger! Zombie Attack Ahead!

Nearly drove off the road laughing.......

Hurph,
We had ink wells, pen points (nibs?) and wooden handles to hold the points.
Our desks had a hole on the upper right to hold the ink bottle.
This arrangement was not very good for a southpaw.
Ink base was put in a large jug, water was added and it was shaken.
Then it was poured into the small ink bottles that were used at your desk.
You dipped the point in the ink and then wrote. Maybe. If you pressed too
hard ink would spread all over what had been written and you started over.

I used those replaceable plastic cartridge nib pens all through high school.

A few years back I was driving towards Pittsburgh on the day after the Penguins had won the Stanley Cup. All the PennDot advisory signs along the highway were displaying "GO PENS". We were on our way to a Pirates/Tigers game. Before the game they introduced the Penguins players and then the coach came out holding the Stanley Cup over his head. During the game you could track the location of the Cup as it was paraded through the stadium by the local cheering.
