Oh man, that is such a classic quote from him, with the ominous bold and everything! Thanks, Justin.

Or maybe the sign maker argued with the person writing it about the mis-used apostrophe and didn't want it attributed to her/him!

How does one drive a bridge? And why is it a swing warning?

toep said...

@kbro, i've been wondering the same hing.

Here is how i read the sign: IF this bridge is driven past (apparently this sign is located at some line-in-the-sand point), it is swing warning ('swing warning' being like a condition red) Power will be lost.

I think it means, "If this bridge is driven past its swing (ie, swings too far) it will lose power."

But everything's wrong. The speech marks, the apostrophe, the construction of the sentence, the languauge used. Just terrible.
