An evening view of the city's Downtown skyline offers more than just a beautiful blend of old and new architecture towering over glistening moonlit rivers.

If you look high atop the 33-story Grant Building, you see the red neon lights flashing, in International Morse Code, a one-word message:

"P-I-T-E-T-S-B-K-R-R-H"

Apparently, he knows how seriously the newspaper takes misspelled words.

Missed the perfect gag there.

They did this story maybe 10 days ago or so on NPR--it was awesome listening to them trying to figure out how to pronounce it.

Sounds like a file got corrupted some where. Or if they are still using an electromechanical system (piano roll?) the mechanism or roll is wearing out.
