The magical word of Plopsaland.

It may be just me, but come on - a theme park called Plopsaland?!

I've been told that I find that name unhealthily entertaining.

Japan has highway roadsigns in 100m increments too. I reckon it's something to do with timetabling accuracy and knowing exACTly where you are and should be at any given point in time. Very German/ left brain. Are you in fact in Germany? Well, maybe very Flemish then?

Simon says:

The roadsigns also have sth to do with the police being able to calculate your speed. If you're driving 120 km/h, you should get from sign A to sign B in x sec . If the police notes that you pass the distance in e.g. half that time, they know you're driving too fast. Tricky, eh?

We have the 100 m signs in Canada too. However, I think that we use them to pass the time when there's no moose to look at.

well, ploplsaland or whatever isn't much worse than a city called MIRRABOOKA
