Yeah, people always flip out when they find out that the last line of frontal thunderstorms spawned a tornado or two in PA. As if that *never* happens here.

Of course the question is also how secure is the method for changing content and how soon before someone hacks into one and grabs some free press.

The billboards...I drove past one tonight on the Schuykill Expressway near the stadiums.

I also saw one in Bartonsville, PA of all places, on Route 611. That is the LAST place I'd expect to see one

. It's near street level, too.

I would imagine that one of these would be running Windows (apparently one showed a blue screen of death a few years back). How long before someone with a BartPE CD or flash drive changes the billboard to something they found on Stile Project?

Or at least something related to Howard Stern, like the guy who calls CNN and other news outlets just to say the name

.
