Return of the Naked Light Pole. Or, we no longer have THAT problem.

At 8:00AM on Demonstration Day, the No Parking posters in front of the Whitman were gone. Clean. This was not the quick, amateur, frustrated, rebellious removal of a No Parking poster but the professional, surgical removal of the authorities. (OK. Possibly a rebellious neatik, but it's doubtful, given the doggie poo pickup rate around here.)
(The problem, for those of you in Rio Linda, is that apparently rogue No Parking posters were planted in the middle of a residential neighborhood to accommodate an AIDS demonstration--should the editor have rephrased that?--today.)
Thanks go to Theresa DuBois at the Convention Center and Sherri Kimbel of Jack Evans's office. Greg Melcher, president of the Blagden Alley and Naylor Court Association, has also been tracking the problem and has been looking for neighborhood-wide solutions. The editor's guess is that this contretemps will probably be useful.
Things like this happen. When good people are in the loop, they get corrected and things stay cool for a few years.
The editor still moved his car a block away from that upcoming action.
Thanks again to the good people in the loop.
