Hi! I seem to remember from when this story was first published that there was some question over where the sixth image of Ankrom is, but I don't remember the answer. I just checked again, but I really can only find five of him. Can you help?

If you look closely at the far-left image, you can see there are two hardhats, and two vests -- so there are two of him merged there. -rc

Probably the weirdest part of this story is that they decided to keep the improvement. Bureaucracy has never been noted for intelligent decisions, especially when the Rules are much more important than the intent or purpose of the rules, as evidenced in your #748 issue containing The Tomb of Stifled Patriotism.

Mike from Dallas: that was my thought as well when I read this story again today. But I'm glad that Caltrans has some sensible people in responsible positions.... guess more so than your Federal Government! :-)

Well, someone forgot to replace their brains with a rulebook. :D
