You're right, Sellam, but do you really want to risk YOUR entire net worth
on the stupidity of some reckless fool who happens into your facility?
Remember, there doesn't have to me much common sense or legal justification
. . . just a lot of emotion mixed with a generous helping of stupidity, both
belonging to a jury.
