Seems silly not to note it -- just means those on the 14th floor are really on the 13rd ;)</p>Whitney HessTue, 24 Feb 2009 21:57:18 -0000http://whitneyhess.com/blog/2009/02/photo-of-the-day-hebrew-elevator/#comment-6581617<p>I guess I'm not the only one obsessed with elevators:<br><a href="http://tinyurl.com/elevatorusability" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://tinyurl.com/elevatorusability">http://tinyurl.com/elevator...</a><br></p>dlumermanTue, 24 Feb 2009 17:45:19 -0000http://whitneyhess.com/blog/2009/02/photo-of-the-day-hebrew-elevator/#comment-6581481<p>Even more strange is that there's a 13th Floor!!!!

Or is 12 floors considered the limit of walking...?</p>Pete WilliamsTue, 24 Feb 2009 09:54:44 -0000http://whitneyhess.com/blog/2009/02/photo-of-the-day-hebrew-elevator/#comment-6557227<p>Seems better as a mystery.</p><p>Reminds me of the Fine Hall elevator prank, in which one or more enterprising students rearranged three floors in the tower by re-wiring the elevator. They also moved the directory information cards posted on each floor.</p><p>A professor would go to their door, try the key, have it not work, check the directory, see their name, and believe that they were on the right floor. Then they would go back down to the office, get an explanation, and go on with their day.</p>BruceEsrigTue, 24 Feb 2009 03:47:03 -0000http://whitneyhess.com/blog/2009/02/photo-of-the-day-hebrew-elevator/#comment-6538174<p>I'm more concerned about what happened to floors 3-12!!!</p>Natalie JostMon, 23 Feb 2009 22:25:53 -0000http://whitneyhess.com/blog/2009/02/photo-of-the-day-hebrew-elevator/#comment-6533710<p>Maybe they realized that they installed it upside down and just turned the numbers around? lol</p>bobbyboyMon, 23 Feb 2009 18:17:57 -0000http://whitneyhess.com/blog/2009/02/photo-of-the-day-hebrew-elevator/#comment-6521837<p>Superstitiously Hebrew</p>rosswhitingMon, 23 Feb 2009 16:45:49 -0000
