spenac Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I asked if there were any orientals as we all know they are smarter than other races. :roll: Just kidding, I did not ask the above. I asked if I could meet each of them, so I could make an informed decision. Must have been right answer got the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmeaner Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Good point Ruff, but no. Manhole covers are heavy because they are thick metal so they are able to support the weight of traffic. The round shape assures they don't dent anyone's head. Any other shape could fall through the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainstandup Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Not that it matters, but not only are manhole covers round but the city had to tac weld them in place because thieves were stealing them and selling them to scrap vendors. A few really nasty MVC's resulted. I wonder if square ones would have been less attractive? Oh well, back to the OP thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmeaner Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Well, they would have been a lot harder to roll down the street. I wouldn't want to carry them very far. That gave Fat Albert a hernia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
