GUEST,Charmion at work	BS: Ridiculous Warnings and Announcements (183* d)	RE: BS: Ridiculous Warnings and Announcements	07 Oct 04
In New York and Pennsylvania, I have visited public washrooms that featured linen roller towels with the most extravagant warning signs I have ever seen for an object made of cloth: "Improper use could potentially lead to injury and/or death." Some questions: 1. How do you injure (let alone kill) yourself with a linen towel that is rolled up inside a metal box so you can get your hands on only about 18 inches of it? 2. Does the tautology "could potentially" make the warning powerful enough to forestall "improper use"? 3. What are the improper uses of a linen roller towel? Charmion
