"When they opened the (machine) lid (this week), it smelled like hell," he said.

Laywers are all saying it smells like money $$$$$. Lawsuits.

I dont understand why there are so many class action lawsuits. I mean yes this was a bad thing that happened but less then 100 people have gotten sick or have loss their life.

as far as i see it they should be the only ones eligible to receive any compensation for this.

In amongst our generally honest citizenry, we have
a latent society of malingerers...long living enviously
in the shadow of the United States of Litigation...
It was only a matter of time before our justice
system OK'd class-action and personal-injury suits,
and the viral infection known as "ambulance-chaser"
lawyers then spread to here.
