Dear Diary:
The subway now has electronic signs, exhorting, informing, bewildering.
This is a literal transcription of an electronic sign at the Avenue of the Americas-34th Street Downtown subway stop.
All spelling, capitalization, line breaks are as found.
My only editing was to take the first line, capitalize it and make it the title.
