You know, I'm wondering why an enterprising group of attorneys has not brought a class action suit against the official body (bodies?) that recommend(s) service at such coffee temperatures without following that up with any safety recommendations whatsoever.
I mean, look at the established history of cases where the defendants repeatedly cited this (these?) bodies' recommendations for service. And these are bodies for which professional fees are paid in order to render advice. "You mean, Mr. Smith, that your primary focus -- in fact, your *only* focus, according to your testimony -- was the quality of the coffee being served? No consideration whatsoever for the hapless human being on the other end of your selfish and self-centered equation? Even after every credible medical expert in countless cases where defendants -- your paying members -- lost those cases with considerable money damages awarded to their victims? A cup of liquid that cost less than a nickel to manufacture is worth more to you than a 79-year-old woman? A 79-year-old woman who has been drinking coffee for almost 65 of those years? A 79-year-old woman who, without injury, drank plenty of coffee to help keep her awake so she could rivet just one more airplane fuselage in a World War II aircraft factory before she passed out from exhaustion? A 79-year-old woman who not once -- not once! -- had the kind of mishap with coffee made at home or at any of the mom-and-pop restaurants that *aren't* your paying members, who know that it's better to have *good* coffee that satisfies than it is to have *great* coffee that maims?" My sack is tingling just thinking about it! :) Respectfully, Adam Phillip Churvis President Productivity Enhancement ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:248956 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
