Sure, signs are annoying. But you know what I find even more annoying? Street signs. I mean, they really uglify campus. Let's do away with them. And even worse than street signs are those pesky letters that they put on buildings that tell you which ones are which. they are U-G-L-Y! Definately need to do away with them. This way, people can ask questions like, "how do I get to skiles from here" and you can say "take this road here, and make a left at the the intersection with the big tree onto that other road, and keep going until you get to the building with all the bricks.....bwahahahahahaha!" And once they get to skiles, I think we should make the process even more fun by completly doing away with room numbers inside. Room numbers are a serious fashion no-no. They completly destroy the continuity of the walls and doors. They must leave. (sarcasm mode off) I don't really mind helping people out from time to time, but tech shouldn't be making policy banking on my good will. manateeX
