The Town of Columbus has decided to allow the temporary planting of yard sale signs. The decision came about when a citizen complained. The story doesn’t say so, but it is probable she was representing groups who (1) thanks to the last major solar flare outbreak lost their ability to transmit messages through the aether and implant them in human minds, (2) had to sell things because they had no money for food and rent and therefore obviously none for paid advertisements, or (3) had to sell stuff because they were too poor to own twitter and facebook machines.
