I dont know about you guys, but I never thought about using a
screwdriver

Musta been one heck of a lawsuit.

If there were to be effective tort reform, I think it would be to allow
manufacturers to lable the packaging "Warning! Do not do stupid things
with this product! You might get hurt!" -- and then get off the hook
for folks doing really stupid things with their stuff.

That should cover this case, the woman who spilled McDonald's coffee in
her lap, and the gazillions of other really stupid lawsuits out there.


Ive always been fascinated by one of the myrid warning lables on my
Warner step ladder that says safety glasses should be worn whenever
you use this product.

We just opened a bottle of milk - on the label is a warning - "This bottle
may contain milk"!
I should darned well hope so - thats what we bought it for!
