I'd say keep e-mailing. Don't let them give you the runaround.

About what, exactly?  I don't think they're giving me the runaround, and I don't want to sound rude.



As for the new control poles (as I call them), they've replaced the hanging-wire signs.  The last UT-11 sign has also been taken down.  I don't know if I've ever seen a pole setup like this before, in Utah or anywhere.  It's probably not the only one around, but has anyone else seen these?  I wonder if we'll see this type of pole come to places like Panguitch or Blanding (who also have used the hanging-wire control signs).

I believe Florida uses that sort of placement as well for guide signs.  They certainly do for one-piece signs with banner/shield/arrow combinations on them.



I seem to remember somewhere seeing a similar arrangement, except featuring a green guide sign with an arrow and a destination.
