Dang, I have a Y nearby but no photo...
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

As a practical matter, that means the Oil City/Texarkana sign would still be the current entry if the offending Ontarios were skipped.

You're right. It was kind of funny because each of these was clearly a different Ontario, but I don't want us to just get stuck in a loop where everyone's posting different signs referring to Atlanta, GA.
