[ale] Exploding CD?!?

[Dave Brooks]

All I have to say is, you're sitting on millions, pal.  Think about it.  
You can sue Westwood for making faulty CDs.  You can sue the maker of your 
CDROM drive, and you can probably sue your computer manufacturer (if 
applicable) for using faulty CDROMs.  You can also sue Microsoft for being 
compatible with games that are produced on such shoddy media (hey, cant 
hurt to try).  Tack on a little emotional trauma on top of that, and you 
could be a very rich man.  If people can sue McDonalds for spilling coffee 
in their laps, you can certainly pull this off.

If you persue this, I'd like $10,000 of your settlement for suggesting the 
idea. =]
