I think we are made to be stupid, a good example from our former parent company.
We had signs to put above hot taps in the kitchens and bathrooms to make users aware that there is hot water in the hot tap.
Every day, thousands of innocent plants are killed by vegetarians.

The second warning in the instructions for the iron we bought over the weekend, something like:
"Do not iron clothes while wearing them, as severe burns may result."

Or the warning on my Wagner PowerStripper - do not use to dry hair.

Interesting notion, and it does seem to match available data going forward.
Unfortunately going backward implies that, somewhere in the past, folks were smart enough to plan for this[^] as the future. Either that, or they thought it would be massively humorous to ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) with us.

As far as I'm concerned, if you purchase water in a bottle, then yeah, you're probably the type who needs all sorts of warnings and guidance.
Bonus points if you're also the type who, at the same time, worries about the environment, yet continue to make said purchases.

Blond or Brunette?
Ok, or other.

I seem to have all of them. One moment she's blonde, the next Brunette and occasionally a Redhead. In fact, even grey is starting to creep in - but please don't say anything. She'll bite your head off. The more grey appears, the more it costs me at the hairdressers.

Redhead; I've been married dangerously for 37+ years now.

SVG or Canvas or something else?
I have used SVG but am thinking of switching to use HTML5 Canvas instead.
What are your opinions?

Depends on the requirement, but for basic images SVG all the way! Canvas implementations have just classically had too many issues for broad compatibility.
