Actually, it was a "Congestion Ahead" sign ... I tended to colds as a youngster. Ms. Good certainly got the national press coverage, but as the saying goes, "Any media attention is good attention." I'd rather have Meredith Viera introducing a story on Atlanta doing something "innovative" rather than on our traffic woes and smog. I'm just waiting for a band under a local record label to adopt the name "Workers Ahead." It could happen. Demonbeck: My guess is that Grrr grew up with a “Dip” sign in the front yard.

Her attempt to draw attention to her magazine at tax-payer expense is sad. Ms. Good’s shameless promotion efforts were transparent today on the national morning programs.

It doesn't go so far to say if they are "men" mens, or "wo men" mens , just men. Wow, how more generic could they be? mmmmmm............"watch for workers working ahead" that would make a great sign The signs simply refrence “men” at work.

What does GDOT have to do with children with learning disabilities anyway (other than hiring them)? My guess is that Grrr grew up with a "Dip" sign in the front yard.

Discrimination and oppression? Seriously, Grrr? That's absurd! Finally, Rome - amen! No one works in ATL... actually, I take that back out of 20+ workers 1 or 2 work and the rest stand there. Wonder why we are $140m in debt! And now? we have to fix our sexist signs - so important! Thank you Rogue for pointing this out! Discrimination and oppression? Seriously, Grrr? That’s absurd!

Ever count how many signs are on a mile of highway? Not hazard or road condition, 'lie-safety' signs, but little info-signs.... @rome You are onto something here... People Standing Around signs should be the norm... @Grrrr The yoke of oppression, firmly fastened upon the working class, shall be broken...yawn.... I wonder about the Highway sign lobby.

I just posted on <a href="http://justgrits.wordpress.com/2008/07/10/neutered-signs/" rel="nofollow">this </a> myself. Cynthia Good is a former news"person" at WAGA for over 20 years. Now she is a magazine editor. Maybe she hopes to bump her subscription rates a bit by this stunt. What a hoot! I just posted on this myself.
