Some ultra-observant citizen had to call it in first.
Big orange letters on the sign.
The conditioning is working.
Well, on the Ellen show Know or Go game, Snookie from "Jersey Shore," asked to name the other 12 original colonies, got as far as New York, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania .. and Canada.
One of her co-stars, asked to name the four seasons, responded: "You mean THE four seasons? You might as well dump me right now."

How many only ones did it take to determine there was no threat?

How many idiots phoned this in?

What the hell have we become?

I predict that during the evening on October 31, costumed masked terrorists will go door-to-door, threatening the occupants of innocent homes unless a token ransom of candy is given to the terrorists. How dare they!

Oh, and be prepared for the frothing discussions of Halloween as un-Christian and the mark of Satan, etc. The Druid New Year's Eve celebration has already been co-opted and sanitized for the Christians, so they need to get over it. I do not expect the modern-day Puritans and Separatists to understand.
