The legible text reads: there will be no more electrical outlets or drug stores or bar soap or teeth. there will be no more allergy medications or or answering machines or gargoyles. there will more dental plaque or question marks or stripes or email or shapes. there will be no more -ries or or scrabble tiles or or escalators. there will be no more apostrophes or or applications or -tands or turnpikes. there will be no or machine ng short water towers
