I read in our paper several months ago about a woman taking a motorcycle helmet company to court for several million dollars for not spending enough in advertising to make her son buy one of their helmets. He bought another brand and was in an accident and has some brain damage as a result, she figures if he had been wearing one of their helmets, he would not have suffered the same ends. Therefore it must be their fault. I have not heard how that one has turned out though.

It may "seem about on par" with what you believe, but that is far from being "true." I've Googled the situation that you say you've read about, and can find nothing.

There is a great deal of money invested, by those whose profit is at stake, in spreading the general feeling that they are not liable for their misjudgments. They want everyone to believe that just the judges and juries are. (And that lawyers -- other than their own lawyers, that is -- are all corrupt.)

You should not be so gullible, guys. The simple rule is that if it seems too crazy to be true, then check it out. You might try an easy tool like http://www.snopes.com/
