"By the way, this little tidbit, also via Overlawyered.com, gave me a chuckle. A woman is suing a railroad for hitting her when she was walking down the railroad tracks. In part, she is suing the train for "failure of its engineer to...yield the right of way". LOL - I can't believe the train didn't swerve out of the way."

Engineer should have hit the throttle then turned around to check a gauge or something.

Actually the lawyer filing such should be taken on a walk upon the railway sidewalk! That fixes two problems in an afternoon. I think if more of them became unemployed by such crap the entire industry might could actually become a value to the world.

But 100 at the bottom of any bay today, is but a good start!!

Thanks for pointing out in such great detail how many naive Americans are thinking that the Vioxx recall is some kind of a get-rich scheme. It is perfectly acceptable for people who were genuinely hurt by Vioxx to present a convincing legal argument and ask for compensation, but the types that you mention, well, they really need to get a life.

Regulation by litigation is becoming a big problem. The Commons blog had something on it just a few days ago:

The owner of that million dollar vioxx site is not a lawyer, just some schmuck looking to make a few bucks off the Google Adsense program.
