Aeschylus for Mayor

Gwangju is famous for its falling anvils. Since the Shilla dynasty, Gwangju citizens have been taught to cast their eyes skyward to seek out airborne tools of the forge. Children are taught from the earliest age to be ever vigilant for heavy iron blocks in flight. The municipal government issues safety helmets to all citizens, then puts these signs around the tourist areas of town, lest travellers forget to don appropriate headgear.
