Sign posted to thank person who helped at Eglinton/Banff

A poster has gone up at Eglinton Ave. and Banff Rd. in which good Samaritans who helped at an accident scene June 26 are thanked and asked to get in touch, presumably with one of the parties helped. The writer of the poster asks that anyone replying answer some questions to insure his/her identity. What was the gender of the driver you helped,  what was the colour of your shirt and what did you say you do for a living. Looks like the writer is trying to establish a witness to events. The address is banff-eglinton@yahoo.com
