Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell
You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

Nope, I didn't aware of that. The last post I remember about him was that someone posted a thread saying Henry joined Stackoverflow. It was long time ago.
Enjoyed his posts when I was new here.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Is vandalism spray-painted very, very high known as Giraffiti?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Ancient hominids used to paint graffiti very, very high... it was the Stoned Age.

The road side sign is placed in a more natural field of view when driving than your cell phone placed on your lap.
Texting while driving (or holding your phone while driving) is really dangerous as you remove your concentration from driving to do something else.
I'd rather be phishing!

Plus reading doesn't need your hands, where as using a phone often does.

The sign is visible from a distance when it is just above your line of sight enabling you to read it while still keeping peripheral vision on the road and requiring very little focal shift.
Looking at your phone requires you to take your eyes off the road completely.

Yes, signs are dangerous and should be removed; no street signs, no speed limit sign, no yield signs, no stop signs, no off/on ramp signs.
None - no signs whatsoever...

I won't sign off on that.

While I do *see* yer point, yer looking UP at a sign, of which your lower peripheral vision still has the road "in sight".
Whereas, looking DOWN, you can (usually) only see the top of the dashboard in your upper peripheral vision.

I have a pic somewhere (always wanted to upload it onto my site and post a link here) of two adjacent billboards.
- The one on the left admonishes drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road.
- The one on the right is an add for Geico car insurance.

I always disable that option on explorer windows, as it drives me nuts, for example, I end up thinking that "foo.exe" is the application when it's actually "foo.exe.config" I prefer to see exactly what the file name is rather than have to move my eyeballs over to the "Type" column. What about you?
