Or the LED signs that tend to installed behind other equipment that obscures their viewing - which I am convinced is someone's scheme to get paid twice by having to move it again later. I'm not convinced that the signs have real time data, it often seems more like if the schedule was running perfectly there will be a train here in N minutes. I see things show up early all the time, occasionally the train don't show up at all but get dropped off sign.

It is interesting that somehow the conductors manage to get the marbles out of their mouth only for screaming at people for holding the doors open. I stick my foot in the door every time they do that - negative reinforcement. ;)

I thought it was just me that can never get the right god damn angle to see those signs! I swear the ones at Union Square I feel like a gymnast trying to just see how far away the next train is. Knowing the MTA, I'd guess your conspiracy is definitely at least partially true.
