circle of death + 6" of unplowed snow = even greater traffic slow down


chmeeee, I do have a real question. Is there a purpose to having such a sharp edge on the granite curbs (both in the circle of death and everywhere else)? It seems to me that something so clearly able to cut a tire or gash a rim must have a logical reason behind it? Is it just a simple case of dulling the edge being cost prohibitive? I've always wondered.
