But that's my point - even for the same place name on the same type of sign in the same part of town, it's not at all consistent. Most of the signs telling you that you can get to "Greenville" by going up I-85N (whether from I-75/85 downtown, or from I-285) dot the I in "Greenville" - the one you linked to doesn't. So I don't think the dotlessness is intentional. I think the dots just fall off. GA DOT needs to rethink its technique. -- Mark J. Reed <markjreed@...>
