I've told them several times that that looks particularly bad because it's right near the reference section where someone can look up "accordion" in the dictionary, but no luck yet. (Never mind that all someone has to do is actually pick up a package of the files to see that the sign was misspelled.) Ah well...my lonely crusade continues.

Heh, reminds me of another professionally made sign that's been up for several years in front of a restaurant that's not all that far from me: "SEAFOOD AT IT'S BEST".

Ack. I mean, couldn't they just paint over that apostrophe once and for all? ;-)
