They should serve all coffee cold and only sell hot coffee after the customers signs a paper stating they know that hot coffee is hot

> 79-year-old woman from Albuquerque, New Mexico, ordered a 49-cent cup of coffee

She ended up with $640,000

Bottom line was she was seriously injured and spent lots of time in Hospital and had skin grafts

Actually no one except a few have a clue how much $$ she ended up with but for sure Attorneys bought new boats and home improvements
