More dishonest facts.  An Albuquerque jury awarded Stella Liebeck a
sum which was reduced to less than $500,000 by the judge after she
suffered horrible third degree burns to her labia minora, labia
majora, inner thighs, and other soft tissue because the coffee she
spilled on herself was boiling hot.  The cup was defective, the lid
was defective, and the coffee was guaranteed to scald.  After the
verdict Mickey Dee's cofffee temperature was reduced to 158 deg. F.

Stella was hospitalized and received painful debridement and was
disabled for weeks.  After she recovered she was required to have
extensive skin grafts.

And you are still an idiot.
