I've a good mind to phone this guy up and say, "If you can come round in the next two seconds, there's an oak tree falling into my garden."

New York state does the same thing with road signs: "Watch for falling
rocks."

Yup, look up, not at the road ahead where there might be FALLEN
rocks....


Yes but I;d have thought any drive would be watching the road to see if anyhting in front of him need avioding actual whether rocks that have fell or cars in front.

What people might not know is that rocks could still be falling.

Then again falling could be some sort of word do indicate the onset of autumn. ;-)


But you can't avoid falling rocks, so there's no point in telling you about them, unless you want to turn back and not drive along that road?

P.S. despite him mentioning New York, you deleted the alt.home.repair group, so he won't see your reply. Doh!
