  Earlier in the week there was discussion on Twitter about the light bulb at Coke Corner. The split color bulb had been replaced with a solid color one. It was fixed a day or two later.
  For those that do not know the story, the lights at the entrance alternate between red and white. But the total number did not work out properly to keep alternating. So the solution is to have a split color bulb.
  A closer look at the famous bulb.
