ROOF SAFETY; DOES NOBODY CARE??

Dear Estory:

I agree with your impassioned plea about safety but I think you missed the point of the photo. If you would have clicked through from the email you will see that photo was taken in the 80's and it was meant to be tongue in cheek correlating with the subject of the email. By posting that photo I am not promoting unsafe practices any more than posting the photo weeks before with the elderly lady on the roof was encouraging old people to get on a roof. It should be very clear that my photos are posted to show how absurd or scary people can be.

FYI: I will be posting a photo in a couple of weeks with a shirtless guy roofing with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth. The inference will be "look at how we used to do things" - not "do it this way". Again, My posting photos of unsafe working conditions taken decades ago is not promoting those practices but the exact opposite.

Additionally the point of the topic I reposted was so show even the most cautious people make mistakes. My eblast was about not getting too complacent with your safety. How did any of this make you mad?

Being such an advocate of safety as you seem to be you should be happy I am trying to help. Please try and view the photos in the manner in which they were entended and I am sorry you are in such a bad mood. You came real close to putting me in one!
