Pennsylvania is the antithesis of Vermont. In Vermont, back in the
1960's, a bill was passed that prohibits any large roadside billboards
statewide. This in contrast to Pennsylvania -- especially the Poconos --
where you might have several billboards erected over a relatively short
expanse of roadway (one might actually "eclipse" the others . . . that's how
closely they are positioned to each other).
