Acceptable Margins of Error

Istanbul, 2007

A minor earthquake rippled across Tokyo last night - feeling somewhat like a warm welcome-back nudge.

What, if anything does this have to do with Istanbuli close-to-the-edge parking? It reminds me that people living in areas with a high incidence of earthquakes are more likely to place (breakable) objects further away from droppable edges.

Yeah you're right - this photo weakens my argument, but I suspect that the Turkish attitude to 'make do' overrides any consideration for earthquakes.
