Rather than a sign that says "Don't Walk," would a dancing traffic icon keep you from walking against the red light? That's what one company in New York is hoping for. The thought is that watching the little stick figure guy on the pedestrian signal dance will keep people entertained, and therefore on the curb longer, rather than crossing against the light. Watch the video; it IS oddly entertaining.
