An Inclusive Litany
3/16/98
Winners of the Massachusetts Civil Justice Reform Alliance's "Wacky
Warning Label Contest" included "Remember, You Should Not Aim Pepper
Spray at Your Eyes," and "Please Do Not Drop an Air Conditioner Out
a Window!" A cigarette lighter came with the warning, "Do Not Ignite
in Face," and a can of liquid drain cleaner warned, "Do Not Reuse
Container for Storing Beverages." The aim of the contest was to
underscore the often absurd defensive measures firms must take to
avoid frivolous lawsuits.
