Well, lets put it this way: I *agree* that the coffee was too hot, OTOH, it
takes quite a bit less temperature in that area to cause a burn requiring
graft. Whereas anywhere else, the coffee probably wouldn't have required
hospitalization.

I, too, am glad on her part that she won only so that she would be able to
pay her outrageous doctors bills, but on the other hand, it is common
knowledge that coffee is hot and you do NOT want to spill it anywhere. This
unfortunately shows that the judicial system is up for grabs to the highest
bidder and the best sob story.

This, coming from someone who recieved a huge blistering on the back of
their hand this past summer from such a coffee spill. heh.. I was a dumbass,
and I had a reasonable amount of mindfulness to realize that what I was
engaged in could result in a spill.  I took my chances. She took hers.

My problem with many of these cases is that ppl should be allowed to live
and die (if it comes down to it) by their own decisions. IMHO the judicial
system shouldnt be in the business of saving ppl from themselves. There are
far larger fish to fry (pun intended) that are willing to do far more to
abbreviate the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Not like this stupid case hasn't already been beaten to death in the press.

 rant (off);

If you wish to continue this Quixotic argument to try to "convert" me to a
creepy feelgood dopesmokin new-age nicety-nice tree-huggin animal-lovin
freak, forget it.  Its too late.

I already play one in real life. ; )

Im just not one on this particular item.
