    Whats so silly about that?
    Now if it was at the bottom of the stairs and the wet floor was at the top, that would be silly.

      You trip over it and fall down the stairs.

          Ahh, they obviously forgot to place another sign a suitable distance before the "Wet Floor" sign saying "Beware of the Wet Floor sign".

            Damn guys I though you both were Brits. Have you moved to the US or what?
            Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.

              Sort of a saftey sign, my laptop at work has thrown a wobbly. When I try to boot it up I get a message stating that that hard disk has failed and that I should therefore backup the data on my hard disk immediately.

                Good one Ant.

                Nothing about being in the Us impact it's about common sense. Don't put signs at the very top of stairs.

                How about a Wet floor sign 20 yards into the wet floor.

                  The entrance to my local pub has a sign on the door which reads:

                  "Dancing on these premises is strictly prohibited"

                  Is it just me or is this odd?

                    Or near a severe Gas leak. No smoking!! But cars can park nearby and the Kerosene lamps are burning alongside the trench.
