www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/femail/article.html?in_article_id=450995&in_page_id=1879I guess the new tinfoil hats for the summer are out. I want one! "This may sound bizarre, but there is no doubt that Sarah's symptoms are real.
To date, they include hair loss, sickness, high blood-pressure, digestive and memory problems, severe headaches and dizziness."Wow, none of those symptoms could be doubted eh. Kind of like the proverbial, back injury in a car accident, litigation scenario.

Hmmmm....
The symptoms are probably real.
Remember the scare about silicone breat implants? that they were rupturing (that part was true) and the leakage of silicone was destroying the immune systems of the women (probably not true)?
Women had the same long list of seemingly unconnected complaints- from joint pain to nausea to depression to "flu-like symptoms".
The one thing they had in common was that they had silicone breast implants.
So a John Edwards-clone sues Dow Corning, cherrypicks a sympathetic (and utterly ignorant) jury and the case goes against Dow to the tune of something like $3 billion dollars. Dow goes bankrupt....but only after the parasite lawyers are paid of course.
Sounds like the woman in the story has a bunch of nonspecific complaints and is looking for a scapegoat.

Speaking of Blackberrys...
Did you happen to see the report of the girl who won the International text-Messaging Championship and the $25k prize that went with it?
ROTFLMAO!
