Warning! Mind the Mine!

This one’s for Caolionn. She was collecting signs like this on her blog at some point, if I recall. I spotted this on a hike in the canyons on my trip off-planet (click on it for detail):
small mine warning

I just love this sign.

    Clifford, maybe a trackback to the, “There’s Gold on the Landscape?”

  2. Clifford Says:

    What? Oh….. very good….. also resonating with commenter science’s fool’s gold comment. Cute. :-)

  3. Plato Says:

    To me, the matters are the least of my idea’s about “gold” and is one more of, a “social conscience” in regards to what “wisdom might be implied.”

    “Seeds” for the future.

    But ya, okay, resonantes, but not with sciences(ego state consolidated) comment :) Emphemeral, remember :)
    Newton’s trouble maybe mine, as well. You know, “color and all” in regards to Wassily.

    “Pyrite” is a fool’s gold :) Baez, left us instructions about this.

  4. Clifford Says:

    Plato, as usual, you’re just way, way, way, way over my head.

    Thanks for the thoughts, though.

    Reminds me of the warning signs near the terminal face of the west coast glaciers - all in pictures for the non-English speaking tourists. They appear twice - the second time they completely block the path, along with a stone wall, so you have to be really, really, really pigheaded not to get the point! But some people manage anyway.

    Clifford,

    My energy, through “tunnelling” from other universes is not all accountable, so the “communications” can get “fowled up” using chaotic english words, entangled:)

    Let me try that again.

    Wok this way? Walking the Wok? :)The “Weight” of Evidence

    I’ll be good now.

    I particularly like the mention of “unstable explosives”. If the explosives left in the mine had only been stable!

  11. Nic Says:

    I also happened to run across a sign of the same type but in a rather different setting

  12. Clifford Says:

    Food for thought, Nic.
