For Gabe <br /> <br />I assume that you are a lawyer based on your enlightment on this and other topics. I did not mean to imply that the Vioxx is a frivilous case. It has merit as the drug apparently causes problems. I have taken it in the past and now am on Baxtra. Today a study was reporting that Baxtra does the same as Vioxx. I will stop taking Baxtra, but have no intention of suing for having taken these drugs. What I am against is the practice of barristry (sp?) or solicitation of work by blatant TV ads. It is this type of lawyer who gives the whole industrey a bad name. I am sure that you agree with this. <br /> <br />Let me site another case of bad lawyering at our transit agency. One of our buses had its mirror hit a dump truck and the bus rocked slightly. The driver got out to exchange info with the truck triver. One passenger ran up and down the bus telling everyone to complain of pain and lay on the floor. After several attempts he found a place to lay on the floor and moan. He was transported to the hospital and "treated". About a month later a lawyer came in representing the passenger, who we affectionsately call the Actor, to talk settlement. We had been waiting on him. What he did not know was that this bus was a test case for television monitoring. We played the video for the lawer and he saw in vivid color and sound how his client staged his "pain". We informed the lawyer that if he pursues this case we will report him to the state bar for knowingly filing a false claim and he wil loose his license. At that point the lawyer said that he is withdrawing from the case. It has been over 5 years and we have not heard from him again.
