Re: dumb warnings?
To be honest I disagree on the necessity of those warnings Tom, not because people arent that stupid, but because really there shouldnt be such a big deal made of all this suing business, it has gotten way out of hand. My personal favourite moron story was the one

Re: dumb warnings?
Dark, while I agree with you in principle I think it is safe to say that suing isnt something that is going to go away soon. Here in America, for example, suing someone over everything or anything is practically a way of life. There was a time where some of the stupid
Re: dumb warnings?
I think Darks point, and Im sorry if Im putting words in your mouth here Dark, is that in an ideal world these warnings shouldnt be necessary because the lawsuits would simply be ignored. Darks point is that the problem addressed by these warnings is one within

Re: dumb warnings?
@Guitarman, the warnings on medical drugs are there for a reason, sinse overdosing or taking in the wrong way in those circumstances could cause major illness or even death, so I dont see those sorts of warnings in the same category as your dealing with something which

Enes, while I know those warnings seem to be absolutely ridiculous the older I get the more I realize there are actually people that stupid. There is a local station where I live that has a morning show called Knuckleheads in the News which is about people who did

TurtlePower, according to this breakfast show at the time yes.TWard, puts me in mind of the guy who tied a bunch of helium balloons to a garden chair and went flying with a BB gun and a can of beer. His plan was to use the BB gun to let down the balloons one at a time
