This picture caught my eye, beacuse of the sure mis-match of the sign!
With the no smoking sign, one would be primed to think that it would be supported by words that describe the no-smoking sign. However, the label beneath the sign is "Please return tray/crockery after use."
For an alien who doesn't know what the no-smoking sign represents, it would be primed to think that that symbol represents the call to return the trays after use.
Funny what we come up with to put in our canteens these days. =)
