An Inclusive Litany
6/19/00
A Georgia man sued the manufacturer of Liquid Fire drain cleaner,
packages of which feature an ominous skull and crossbones and numerous
warnings. Suspecting that the bottle's spout might drip, he emptied
the contents into another bottle whose spout he thought might not
drip, but that bottle immediately began to disintegrate, causing the
dangerous liquid to spill on his leg. He is asking for $100,000 for
his injuries.
