Hi George,

I never thought of it that you and you may be right.  Hopefully that won't
happen to anyone... because that would hurt!  :-)

Regards,

Bob

      You make a good point, but I think liability laws, which vary state to
state are pretty complex.  Hopefully, as you suggested  some actual legal
opinion will be offered.  I had a business law professor in college say that
the law looks for someone to pay regardless of whether a person is actually
responsible.  It may not win in court, but I'll bet the legal argument for
someone being hit by a meteorite in a doctor's office would be something
like, there is an implied guarantee of safety when entering the building.
