Title: I love americans.. Post by: Whits on Friday, January 14, 2005, 19:28:43 ...are they really that stupid that they need the following warning labels..
A flushable toilet brush that warns users, “Do not use for personal hygiene” has been identified as the nation’s wackiest warning label in an annual contest sponsored by a consumer watchdog group. The $250 second place award went to Matt Johnson of Naperville, Illinois for a label on a popular scooter for children that warns: “This product moves when used.” Third place and $100 went to Ann Marie Taylor of Camden, South Carolina who found the following warning on a digital thermometer that can be used to take a person’s temperature several different ways: “Once used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally.” Fourth place was a label on an electric hand blender promoted for use in “blending, whipping, chopping and dicing,” that warns: “Never remove food or other items from the blades while the product is operating.” Sent in by Ken Stein of Berkeley, California. In fifth place was a label on a nine- by three-inch bag of air used as packing material. It carries this warning: “Do not use this product as a toy, pillow, or flotation device.”Sent in by Christen Millard of Westerville, Ohio http://www.mlaw.org/wwl/ Title: I love americans..

Like sleeping tablets that warn you they can make you drowsy :) Title: I love americans.. Post by: Whits on Monday, January 17, 2005, 20:55:57 i think they should take the labels off everything and let it sort itself out (a quote from someone not sure who but very true)
