Just my attempt to steer the topic back on-topic -- I used to drive past it quite often and always think of this topic. That image is actually from the 2009 Google view: https://goo.gl/maps/25i4ZuaNoyFWTfvy8 This is Terminal 2: https://goo.gl/maps/af5hgK9vMgwsESS5A Martin. Like the end of speed restriction and dead end sign on the same pole. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Nick C Posted May 10, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 10, 2023 Not quite a whacky sign, but I clicked on page 404 of this thread exactly the same time the site went down for maintenance - so I got a 404 error on page 404... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many other examples around the world where it DOES work, generally where they use off the shelf hardware and open source software which is open to scrutiny. I personally voted electronically in Australian Capital Territory elections 4 times when I lived there. Estonia is another good example of where it works well. The non-electronic system we've got here seems to work perfectly well, so I fail to see anything to gain by changing. If it ain't broken don't fix it.

pH Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) Some background - the Canadian one-dollar coin is known as the ‘loonie’, because the reverse of the coin shows a depiction of a loon bird. (That wasn’t what was originally intended to be depicted, but that’s a whole nuther story!) So this is the sign for a “Dollar Store” in Princeton, BC, taken today: Edited May 17, 2023 by pH Missed word 7 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Jeremy Cumberland Posted May 17, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 17, 2023 Looks a good way of deterring tourists if you ask me. You can't say that it's untruthful, if put up on an English beach. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult to tell, as they are generally silent until they have their mouths full... Not very polite, to say the least; couldn't possibly be English. 😋 Edited May 17, 2023 by jcredfer 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
