Something Strange: Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which is coincidentally located just a few miles from my home in East Rutherford, New Jersey, was taken out of commission two years ago this month by a rouge electrician and since the New York office controls banking across most of the country this guy with a piece of wire basically shut down the entire federal banking system

Some very smart hacker or some really stupid MTA employee hacked one of those LCD signs in the subway to read: "Pretty girls don't ride the subway" A Curious aside, why is the MTA only now adopting these signs, which use decades old LED tech, and even now they only use the signs to display messages like "don't hold the doors" or "don't run on stairs". They are like the giant expensive signs on the highways that say things like "don't drive too fast" or "have a nice day". Basically, they are spending 100x the cost of static signs to display static meessages.
