Interesting you say this Trent, My friend who owns a Laundromat is currently
being sued by a customer for providing coffee(Free of charge mind you) but
not advertising that the coffee was actually hot, the poor woman burnt
herself, and now she's sueing, what has this world come to?

Totally off topic now, sorry guys :)
