The Big Picture by Lennie Peterson for October 04, 2012

why does my box of instant scalloped potatoes have a resealable flap when it’s a single use package?

My understanding is that it’s more cost effective to make one kind of keypad instead of two for ATMs.(’Round these parts we call an ATM a “Jones Teller”.)

or – why is there brialle on the name plates that are put on the top of doors for conference rooms, ect., at all the major hotels. There are not very many people that are that tall.

Why does Store 24 have locks?

re: 3 – if you are blind and need to make an ATM withdrawal (yes blind people need cash sometimes), do you REALLY want to trust your driver with your PIN?

Why is there a statement on menus at many fast food restaurants that says “Picture menus available on request”? The people who need it would not be able to read that notice!

Also in the 7th Street parking garage in Harrisburg, PA!

Number 1 is wrong – radiation doesn’t “heat up to maintain its constant state of energy.”
