Mysterious Mysteries: Words on the Street
Is anyone else seeing these reflector-tape words on city streets? I've seen a few already, but have been in transit and thus unable to snap them. This "was" is outside our office at Second and Chestnut.
Is there a route that forms, say, a sentence? And are these in any way tied to the reflector-tape Stickman outbreak of 2007?

Send me your photos (bhoward [at] citypaper [dot] net), or post links, and we'll try to solve this puzzle.
not was
Stickman did a new sweep a few weeks ago with a black and white series, sometimes acting as shadows/mirrors of each other. You can't go up 3rd North of Broad without seeing a dozen. There were some words on South street but they've already been worn down.
Any pics of the b/w stickmen, Sequoia?
