   Or was the sign cautioning the readers to be a “cautious stairway”, along the lines of similar signs asking readers to “Please be quiet”?

   Interestingly, there were quite a few of these types of signs around — a few with different wording, but the same idea. Curious…no doubt!

   @ Meaghan –

   Around where?

   @ Conall -

   Asking someone to be quiet is humanly possible. I’ve yet to meet anybody that can change themselves into a stairway upon command.

   It would be tough, hence the need for caution, but I bet you could think of a way to make yourself “step-like” in order for people to ascend or descend from some height. Also, does it seem more “possible” for a stairway to be cautious than it is for a human to be a stairway?

   The other signs were posted in the same restaurant I snapped that picture at. They have similar wording — but that was the most direct statement.
