I applaud their foresight to install signs that were vague enough to function as a screen to those who cannot make quick decisions based on seemingly conflicting information. As a reminder of the activity they are about to engage in as well as a deterrent to those who stand in the middle of the road looking back and forth between the two signs before they get run over by incoming traffic in their confusion. But, if that were the case, have comfort in knowing that medical help is available.... which brings me to another item that I left out in the last post:
- Emergency Medical Response: During Men's Sabre event (I think it was Sabre), a fencer on a strip behind mine apparently lost footing while attempting to retreat faster than was feasible at the moment. For a moment there was a concern about the extent of damage on his wrist. Before the time it took for a fellow fencer to turn around, and yell toward the Bout Committee (2 strips away) that medical help is needed, a professional Paramedic was already on strip assessing the injury. Before the time it took for me to finish processing my bout so I can turn back and see what's going on, a Medical Doctor was already on scene offering help if needed.
Explanation: The referee on that strip was a Paramedic. The MD was a fencer on adjacent strip (lengthwise). The referee on adjacent strip (widthwise) was also a former EMT. I've been told afterward that there was a lawyer present in the room as well. Couldn't have picked a better place to be injured.
