66.6 mile marker repeatedly stolen
Joe Orlando, a spokesman for the authority, said officials have no idea who has been stealing the signs, WABC-TV, New York, reported Tuesday.
"Maybe it's just some kids with a devil-may-care attitude," Orlando said.
He said the mile marker, which costs about $50 to replace each time it is stolen, is located in a sparsely populated area that is far from entrances or exits to the highway.
"Given the symbolism of the number and the fact that it is obviously done in the middle of night, and in the middle of nowhere, I can safely say that I'm not eager to meet the rocket scientists doing it," Orlando said.
The number 666 is is the "Number of the Beast" in the Book of Revelation in the New Testament.

How about moving the marker and making it 66.5, wouldn't be more practical?
