      I vote for two. One to do it; the other to read the installation precautions while he's doing it (or maybe before).

      On a related but different subject; I never quite figured out why a person has to be told not to put his/her fingers under a moving lawn mower.

        Your two is a new one for the list chevydog. As far a the fingers under a moving lawn mower goes, you have to remember that every warning label is there because someone did just what they are now warning against and then tried to sue or claim damages.

          Yeah, I understand that. And I've heard of people lifting lawn mowers up to mow hedges. I worked for at least one company for whom procedure was king; you didn't buy a hot dog unless there was an approved written procedure for it.

          That having been said, common sense--or lack of it--should count for something. When I dealt with utility law, they used the term "plain reading" alot. In engineering, it was "intuitively obvious". Some of these things would seem to fit in that area.

            I agree chevydog but common sense doesn't always mean much to judges and juries. By the way, we seem to have gotten off track. Did you like the submission itself?

              Yes. And please send over one lawyer (I pay handyman rate) so that we can replace light bulbs. I'll even read the precautions to him/her.

                Do you really think that is a good idea chevydog? If something happens to that lawyer while he or she is changing the bulb he or she could end up hiring another lawyer to go after you and then you would have to hire another lawyer to defend yourself and on and on. I'd hire a handyman instead and save the potential problems.

        What about getting another lawyer to represent the secretary who was asked to change the bulb?
