Supergraphics a Super Nuisance

From the Los Angeles Times:

SkyTag, which says that it produces images "so large they can be seen from space," filed court documents last week saying the city should not try to remove the company's supergraphics from high-rises in West Los Angeles, Koreatown and other neighborhoods until the ban litigation is resolved.

If you've ever driven down the west side of Los Angeles you will in no doubt have seen these monstrosities, huge graphic ads on large buildings.

I for one do not like them, and find them very distracting when I am driving down the road. I would not be surprised if there haven't been any serious accidents caused by these things. I'm pretty sure there are enough people that have been injured because these things are there, that they could file a class action lawsuit against the company(ies) that put them up.

I hope the get taken down.

Church and State

A federal judge has ruled unconstitutional a law passed by the Illinois Legislature requiring the state's schools to require a moment of prayer or reflection on the day's activities.

I wonder that if enough parents feel that this decision is wrong, that they will try to file a class action lawsuit against Illinois schools.
