In jurisdictions where the law mandates what the CPSC did not.
Otherwise, the lawyers are just licking their chops, since they should have
a relatively easy time proving negligence.

Whoa, I think everyones misreading that one.

On August 31, 2007 the problem does not magically go away, it just
becomes someone elses problem.

In either case the sprinklers must be replaced and those that are not
will be cited as a violation under the fire code.

Subject: Re: Article on Sprinkler Recall

Just to ADD to what George is saying here. You all do remember that this
is a voluntary Recall? Voluntary by both the property owner and the
Manufacturer. Unless your state has passed a specific ordinance
requiring the replacement of these heads by a specific date, your state
has accepted an "Unsafe" condition to exist without and specific time
for correction, which makes them complacent or a Co-Defendant.

The law has no requirement of notification of a voluntary compliance
issue.
