This is apparently why MacDonald's had to pay so much to that old lady
who spilled coffee in her lap--because the coffee did not say "Warning:
Coffee is hot!" (the cups now say this).

Actually, they did have a warning on the cup. The jury just ruled that the
warning wasn't sufficient because it's color didn't clash with the color of the
rest of the cup's decorations, so it didn't stand out as a warning. I think the
case winners were the photographs of her injuries, though.


Have fun,
