I couldn't have said it any better. It's a shame the manufacturers have to put such devices on equipment to solely protect themselves from lawsuits. And like you said, I'm sure it started with someone who wasn't paying attention, had an accident, then decided to blame the company instead of being a man (or woman) and taking responsability. After I saw someone be awarded millions of dollars because they spilled hot coffee they had bought from McDonalds on thier lap... nothing suprises me. I don't blame any company for protecting themselves with cut off switches, warning stickers, or whatever else they feel neccessary. It's just a shame that is where we are today! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
