Its fake? Thank God!
Appologies for making you worry about your system although the Stella case was real.
I wonder if that case of the old lady who wanted to dry her doggie in the microwave was real? She supposedly sued the microwave company for not putting in the manual that it kills living animals.
There's hundreds of those myths floating arround about weird lawsuits in the US. I just read another one that some guy won xx million in a case against philip morris a few days ago. He died in 1997 from cancer and claimed that he never knew smoking was harmfull in the 40 years he smoked.
Anyway, good to know its not THAT bad across the pond
EDIT: microwave story is fake too and was actually originally part of this same list but canceled because it would make it an obvious fake.

This site talks about it and also has some real cases that thankfully were thrown out of court. Also states Bush's law that Zagatto talks about at the bottom of the article.
EDIT2, aw shit. I just noticed i posted the exact same link as you Zagatto. Sorry
