Normative Signs: The Poetry of "Ought"

This sign is posted outside a large cathedral in Glasgow. Wonderfully terse (you can almost picture the grumpy cleric shaking tut-tutting the noisy gate-closer).

For some reason the street number immediately made me think of the famous Studio 54… a venue that had plenty of people clamouring at the gate, and is reputed to have seen its fair share of “banging.”

Thanks to Yoni Freedhoff for sending me the photo.
