a very odd structure has appeared on my front lawn.
it appears to be an electronic, flashing traffic sign asking drivers to slow down because it's a residential area. but, i've never seen anybody speeding through there. in fact, i'd say i see a car drive up marion and through that intersection about once a week. the cross street at cataraqui gets much more traffic, but there's basically nowhere to go down marion unless you live there, and there's actually only one house facing that way (marion is just full of a lot of large backyards that are parallel to it) so nobody even lives there. it's like placing a stop sign in a dead-end.
i suspect it's a camera. but, i'm not sure why they're being so low tech about it.
maybe they're frustrated by my rejection of mobile devices.
the reality is that they're not going to pick up anything interesting.
