...Although, the other day I did notice the electronic sign on Largo Vista was lit up with a bunch of lines going through it on 11/13/06 a.m.
Hahah, yeah, that's been going on, for at least 3-4 days now. Nothing like a big bright yellow test pattern for 4 days, to light up the nighttime sky. Someone should call Caltrans and tell them do do a "Control-Alt-Delete" on their darned signs once in a while.
Only two times this past year, do I remember seeing the sign near Mtn High used:
(1) To announce a cute little "don't drink and drive" message
(2) One time (at like 4am in the morning), they did have an "amber alert" flashing on the Mtn High area sign. The amber alert was NOT displayed on the largo vista sign. While I agree that Amber Alerts are very important, I do wonder how useful it is displaying those on that desolate stretch of road.
I don't recall either sign being used last year for road closures, or bad weather or any of that (of course, I could have missed those, too)
On a slightly different thread, Mazzy talked about not having internet access this morning. Just a reminder, to those who have data plans and web browsers on your cell phones, that this forum is available via your cell phone's browser (in fact, its a "cell phone text only" version of the forum, which works great on cell phones)
