[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All this talk about adequate signs!  As if people actually pay attention to them?  Really?

Go look at a Stop sign. It means "Stop". It is unambiguous. It does not mean "Slow Down, Someone Might be Coming". It means "Stop". And people ignore it all the time.

Tylenol has a warning. Don't take with alcohol. People ignore that all the time too!

Go to the beach.  Caution Strong Current signs are routinely ignored and people who haven't the slightest idea what they're doing drown because they ignore the sign.

Maybe these people would have hightailed it away from the lake if it had a gators beware sign. I tend to doubt it, though.

I would bet that each one of you who complains about the lack of a warning sign routinely ignored warning signs putting you and your children at risk. [/quote]

I can't believe you are equating a rolling stop with knowingly letting a toddler wade in alligator-infested water at night.[/quote]

No, PP Is equating a rolling stop with UNKNOWINGLY letting a toddler wade in alligator infested water.  Disney is notorious for controlling absolutely every element of the visitor environment.  It would never occur to me (as a highly educated, attentive parent that has never lived in the American South) that a man-made lake with a beach and a lifeguard, surrounded by Disney resorts, would be alligator infested.
