Yes, in Europe it's probably the golden middle between the USA and 
Korea. We make a lot of jokes here about the product liability laws in the 
USA, which are considered as too extreme, taking away the citizen's 
responsability to take care of themselves. When one microwaves his dog, 
he should be accused for cruelty to animals and not be recompensed a 
million $$$ amount, shouldnd't he?
