Another reason to believe that New Albany is behind the times.

We were returning from a suburban Louisville graduation party last evening and, as usual, descended the I-64 ramp to the intersection of Elm and State Streets.

The first two things you see are the old Nicholson Maytag building on the northeast corner, now mercifully purchased and under renovation, and Planet Telecom just opposite. Now, I've come generally to ignore Planet Telecom's prominent LED moving message sign, which I view as egregious, and yet as we sat at the intersection waiting for the light to change, there was a sense of unease that I couldn't quantify. Finally I read the words scrolling from right to left.

It was the same message that apparently had first run 17 days ago on the morning of April 23, the day after the Pennsylvania primary; the message was about how the race had changed, and what Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama would do next.
