loved the 'warning that balcony wasnt on street level' some of the warning they have now days make ya wonder if people are really that dumb or are the people making the signs afraid of law suits so 'just covering the bases''

Mostly the latter I think.
Why else would a Jar of Peter Pan Peanut butter place below the list of ingredients in bolder but very small print: "Warning Contains Peanuts"?
Why does a bottle of Lower Sugar Gatorade G2 Thirst Quencher contain a small bordered message on the side that announces "Not a significant source of calories from ... {list of fats}"?
Or why does my Dual 1500 Watt Electric Heat Gun box, right under the blurb that mentions rated at 662/1022 degrees F - be sure to inform: That it should "not be used as a hair dryer"?
All I can think of atm. But it goes on and on. I have gotten into the habit of reading the "warnings" on everything, and everything in the states have "Warnings". (Hey, what else do I have to do?)

Speaking of ... I get a chuckle regularly when I remove food which had been baking for an hour from a conventional oven. Be careful! Product will be hot!!

Or the spray can of compressed air that displays the bold caution: "Warning, contents under pressure".

Or perhaps the most fun ...
Everyone check the details of your Doctor's prescriptions or OTC suggestions and see if you can find one medication that does not have the possible side effect of "Shortness of Breath", or better contains a Warning to call your doctor, *immediately*, if you experience "Shortness of Breath" and to stop taking the medication.

good ones gnott! joany, the microwave foods says the same warnings about being hot---DUH!
My pharmacy drugs are getting more & more Ironic instructions; the antibiotic I just took states this (exactly); "Take 1 capsule every 12 hours Once daily" (did they change how many hours are in a day???)
