Thank God not everyone thinks about all that stuff all the time. Our world would stop functioning. I'm around enough product liability at work to appreciate your point CB. PL lawyers are a drain on our society.

I remember the GM truck saddle tank lawsuit. I think it was Bryan Pannish who litigated that as a class action. $4 billion award. It got reduced in a settlement. But the point is he got cash from GM, the class got $2000 discount coupons for new trucks, most of which were never used. GM buttered Pannish's bread, knowing he'd go for it, the class got their axxes buttered, and GM paid a tiny fraction. What a racket. mad
