      Yes, I got hit with that from some dedicated follower of 'ealth 'n' Safety Nazism after contravening BP Personnel law #1532.22:

      "...Thou shalt believe in the universal law of bipeds that walking and carrying a coffee will instantly result in 3rd degree burns of said party..."

      I'd like to see Chris Bliss on site at BP for a laugh...

        To keep claims down..

        Companies should avoid hiring unlucky people by throwing half of job applications in the bin.
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                      I was downloading and installing all sorts of things last night. Don't think it was software though...
