Well, the best suggestion there (by [[User:Cherry blossom tree]]) has been to put up, not an engraved plaque with the wording, but a chalkboard...
Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, what? Aren't we going a little overboard here? This is like putting a plaque in a New York subway station saying "The 500th episode of Law and Order was filmed in this station."
At King's Cross station, there is a plaque showing the "location" of Platform 9-3/4: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Cross_station#Harry_Potter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:KingsCrossStationTrolley.JPG ...and apparently they have had people trying to push their trolleys through the wall (this has not been helped by some wag adding a half-trolley as can be seen in that picture :-)
