The Smooth, Refreshing Taste of Sewer Smoke

Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq. comes through once again. Click picture to enbiggen.

So here is a little gem I found today (9/7/10). On my way to court in Huntsville I see this hand lettered sign near the city limit. I assume this is some city project in order to locate possible leaks in the city sewer system, as that is the normal purpose of this activity. My questions/observations: 1. It isn't a garage sale, put up a real sign; 2. Don't have your 4 year-old create the sign with her magic marker set; 3. Note the date on the sign (June 23), does it really take that long? Are you done yet? How did your sign stay in such fantastic condition for almost 2.5 months. I just found the whole thing rather odd.

(Editor's note) I think Dr. Mac missed a very big number 4: What in the hell is a sewer smoke test? Sounds like a snipe hunt to me.
