World's most passive-aggressive house

So, we're currently in northern Washington. The trip has been awesome so far, with brewpubs, rafting, and much food. There will be more on this after the trip. This post, however, is about the house.

I'm impressed, although the one that really puts me over is the warning about why they can't provide salt and pepper shakers.

If they were just a little further south, the owners would be required to warn you that salt and pepper are known to the state of California to cause cancer.

Well, I never would have thought to dial 911 for Police, Fire, or Emergency!

The fact that these notes are even required should make you weep for humanity. I'm crying into my beer here.

I don't disagree with this one, actually. For one, believe it or not, there are still some areas where 911 service is "one of them new-fangled city things" -- I boggle when I talk to people on the phone who are changing their address "because of the 911 people". If this is in a rural location I can see why some would have pause for doubt. Never mind people from other countries who may not have 911 or are used to dialling, say, 999 instead.

Also, if I'm staying somewhere, if there's some kind of PBX system in a real emergency I would stop and wonder -- do I press 9 for an outside line, or do I press 8 for a local call, or just dial? I've stayed in some places with strange dial-out requirements.
