So there I was, wife on my arm, headed into a restaurant in Changzhou, China, and what do I see on the sign?

Now, do we have here a case of:
A. copying;
B. convergent evolution;
C. sign-napping
D. none of the above.

Is it a small world, or what?


I was passing by the Campus Drive-In one night in 1978 when I was struck by the irony of this shadowy figure changing the marquee with the word "HORROR" above him. Since I had my camera with me I seized the moment. -- Owen C. Western '63


I just come across this in my files and do not know if the photo is still relevant to you but thought I'd send it -- Jann Subiaco '61


I took these photos at College Grove January 29, 2008 -- Victor Perez '71
