1) On the Harvard campus, outdoor emergency call telephones are
labeled "ASSISTANCE". I don't need to tell you what single letter is
often effaced. (Or does this not count because the letter could have
been painted over?)
2) A sign above Jasper White's "Summer Shack" now reads "Clam
Bake Fr ed Chicken Oyster Bar."
