There was a thread on here last week about a highway death in Maryland too wasn't it? I suppose in the south it hasn't caught on, but the first monunents I remember seeing were on the way to Montreal. Tall white crosses in the middle of nowhere- but usually an intersection.. We stopped at one once just to read the inscription of one my mother remembered being there from when she was a kid. it was for people killed in 1914.... had to be one of the first car deaths in Canada. It is catching on in Mass and Conn, especially for highway patrol officers that didn't look both ways before opening the car door etc, and the highway depts or someone of 'influence' maintains them with a metal sign, paved turn off etc. I used to drive by small markers and plastic flowers on the side of the lonesomest straight level roads in the Adirondacks,,, and wonder how the heck they got into a fix like that in a safe looking place like that.... and I got a hunch that is the idea. I know they seem creepy or an invasion... but I suppose the idea is to be 'reminding' - to strangers- noticed by young drivers, bikers and people that just don't pay attention to how they drive.... no one wants their name on one of those...

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
