This lawsuit is a joke. It might go through the court in New Jersey, but it will be overturned on appeal to another court. The thing to remember here is that if a lawsuit of this type were to succeed- it would turn our system of manufacturing and distribution of goods upside down! Every product sold would come with a BIG price tag to cover the potential lawsuits over misuse of the product.

That sort of thing destroyed the small-aircraft manufacturing industry in the mid-1980's. Cessna stopped building piston-powered aircraft for about a decade because the lawsuits over truly boneheaded pilot errors were cleaning them out.
