Yeah, but how far should the warnings and cautions go?
For example, I know two adults who reached into the energized blades of
snow-throwers to remove debris . . .. My car comes with a bunch of yellow
and black warnings all over the sun visors--it's horrible. These warnings
are not removable. Yes, I know these things, why are they in my face every
day??????? I don't read them every day. Believe it or not, I read them once.
They said things like "being a moron in a vehicle moving 60 mph can cause
minor discomfort."
Sigh.
But, hey, starting a fire in the oven is a relatively safe way to learn
about NOT leaving the rolls in the wrapper . . . of course, unless you try
to put the fire out with that Bacardi 151 Rum that is labelled "Flammable."
Cheers,
