Daniel Pink's Pecha Kucha presentation on Emotionally Intelligent Singage raised my attention on the various signs around us. Here are a few that caught my eye in Washington, D.C.

REPETITION > This sign was in the elevator at the National Cathedral. Apparently, it was very important to stress that most of the floors are "closed to the public."

LECTURING > Gina saw this sign in the women's restroom at Fort Ward. I love signs made at the local level. I hope this sign solved their problem.

HISTORICAL > This sign was on display at U.S. Postal Museum.

RESPECTFUL > "Respect" and "Honor" are on a lot of memorial signs.

LAUGHABLE > I guess they had a serious problem with sunbathing at Fort Ward.
