Whats the problem with WIFI???

ive always been told that "results were inconlusive" or "half studies showed effects and half didnt?"

Whats your own opinions?

So, if I stare into a really bright light for ages then it could damage my eyesight? Well there's a shocking revelation!! :-)

Should we also put safety warnings at the top of staircases saying that throwing yourself down them can cause broken bones? Perhaps a note on the kettle in the staff kitchen warning about the dangers of boiling water, or cautioning people that inserting pens and pencils into your eyes can cause blindness?

Yeah the poor kids

My dad's Husqvarna chainsaw had a warning in the handbook that read:

'Do not use when angry'

presumably the result of a lawsuit...

I seriously doubt they're used daily by 5 million students. I'll let you know when I see even ONE student using an IWB!!

That is truly fantastic, Gwendes!!

I think we have gone law-suit-preventing warning sign crazy though. I noticed recently that my carton of fruit juice advised parents of the dangers of sugary drinks and suggested that they consider replacing fruit juices with sugar-free drinks instead. Seriously?!
