No, seriously, bravo to Tom. That's a good catch.
In the print edition, first page first section above the fold. The envy of all politicians.
That's pretty awesome, Nate.
And now he's on NPR: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106606968
Well, Nate, I agree that your inital comment is hilarious, but according to the NPR article, you'll have to update your response now to match the apparently new version of the sign which says "Tpebtsaurgh".
Gettin' closer!
