FLU DELAYS NEON SIGN STORY

How can a neon sign catch the flu?

It can't - but reporters and photographers can. Because of staff illnesses, we won't be able to publish our Nighttime Neon Tour story on Saturday, as planned. Look for it Jan. 11 instead.

To those of you who called our comment line to name your favorite neon signs, our thanks; your comments and suggestions were terrific, and we're busily following them up. Our apologies for the postponement.
