My kid can't find a see-saw to play on or a slide long enough to get a rush. When's the last time you saw a high-dive (other than NCAA or the like). I've a long hill on my property and though I let the neighborhood kids sled on it, my angst is palpable when they do. The annual company picnic is devoid of any alcohol for some years now and I saw a little league game recently in which the kid at bat looked like a catcher who didn't bother to take off his protective gear! How the he!! can you swing a bat or run like that? God forbid that the parked car you bump into at 1 mph exiting a curbside parking spot have an occupant. You'll know if it does when the door opens and they tumble out onto the asphalt. All sarcasm aside, I'm sure my point has been made. I drive K Street in D.C. every night @ 7-9- p.m. and constantly dodge jaywalking attorneys who appear from in between parked vans and cars dressed all in gray on rainy nights. I have no misconceptions about who would be "at fault/negligent" were I to hit one of them. More lawyers in Washington, D.C. than in the entire country of Japan - it's a "make work" culture by necessity. Creative thinking by industries that sell high-risk experiences will become increasingly necessary to deter the net effect of litigous participants. Imagine a scenario in which the line at the top of the hill is longer than that at the lift chair because rider's are released intermittently (unthinkable - or is it?) Everyone wearing different color mesh vests to indicate level of ability and hence, trail assignments. Who knows what. "Kill them all" is a quote that comes to mind. Lastly, if any lawyers read this and are offended, good, and if you are one that "specializes" in bottom feeding from the personal injury trough and cases like the aforementioned N.H. case, you are worse than criminal. The spirit of the law and justice has been hijacked and it saddens me.
