   Ah, yes. This explains the “Zombies rule and drool” sign on I-405 on Seattle’s east side yesterday. In this case, the hackers removed the warning that one of the carpool lanes lacked access to a particular exit. But a six-mile detour is a small price to pay for enjoying some computer Rain Man’s humor, isn’t it? Well? Isn’t it?
