For those who are old enough to remember to pop (or whatever) group "Devo", the town of Devon, PA used to spend a fortune cleaning paint off the last letter of its name on the Route 202 exit ramps.

Back in the 60's I worked two summers at a camp in the Adirondacks for educably retarded children..that was the term of art way back then...The good citizens of the municipality put literally hundreds of the big yellow..SLOW CHILDREN signs all around the neighboring roads...When the first parent visiting day came, the uproar was both HUGH and SERIES..
