Correcting grammar is not something I would consider heroic. Hero is a term
thrown around much too quickly (for example, sports figures).

Bringing *attention* to bad grammar might be worthwhile, but defacing
historic signage is a criminal act (or anyone's signage for that matter).
The sign was known to contain errors, but because of its historic nature, it
was left standing.

Perhaps you should hunt down the tree that Daniel Boone carved "D. Boone
kilt a bar" and fix that one up too.
