What I want to know is why are people such screaming pussies that they are
even thinking about liabilities, if the product has a chance of saving
someone's life in a situation like what happened on 9/11. It sure beats
getting squashed by a collapsing building or jumping 900 feet to one's
death.

Once more, I come to the conclusion that insurance and it's financial 'can't
take the risk' attitude of spinelessness is the biggest scam on the face of
the planet.

People who don't do things or are limited by what they *may* lose
financially, are worse than feminist girls.
