OK fine, you win!

I'll just keep out of it.

I should have asked Santa for a log chipper

I have developed an immunity to those.

[vorlon13]

Despite that, your post there did not result in a 'win'

[fr0d0]

I guarantee I will lose. God wills it.

[robvalue]

Oh. What are the rules again?

Everything is a concept. We choose to adopt them or not.

In other news...
For those of you that hate the Clearview font, there is some good news (sort of): The MOT announced that the Clearview font will no longer be used on September 15 due to cost restraints. Any signs that uses the font on a blue or brown background will remain for the duration of the signs' life until further notice as they will not be change back to the Highway Gothic font in the short term. However, the older signs with the Clearview, especially those on a red background, will be outright replaced. This is in response to the FHWA's decision to revoke the interim approval in the near future.
Speaking of the FHWA decision, the State Tollway Division of the State Militia has suspended the use of Clearview effectively immediately, with any and all future use of the font to be evaluated. Any future signs will use the Highway Gothic font, pursuant to 2010 MUTCD/PU, Revision 1, that was countersigned in April and took in effect in August upon FHWA approval. In an effort to maintain full uniformity, the State Militia adopted the MUTCD/PU starting in September, but will use its own supplement.
Also, the State Militia will now be the sole user of the old Autoroute signs, which will now be placed in the public domain and the copyright removed. On July, the State Militia, the MOT, and the estate of Andrew Hawkins settled out of court to end the dispute that led the MOT to create a new shield for the Autoroute system. This was mostly in response to a General Court ruling in June involving Hawkins's estate and a private sign company under contract to a casino in Silverton. The General Court ruled unanimously to reverse the 1983 ruling. Under the terms of the settlement, which has to be approved by the United States District Court for the Southern District of the Perkins Union, the MOT would receve $120 million, while the State Militia will be paid $97 million.
Construction on U.S. Highway 98 from AS-105 to A-2 could be completed earlier than originally anticipated. This is due to the unusually cool summer that has hit the area (the weather patterns in the state is the same as Ohio). The project could be completed in phases as early as late September.
