You know, the US "sue happy" legal system just invites this sort of thing, too. I am not surprised that people in other countries are now trying to jump on the band wagon. You don't see this sort of case being brought in other countries.

Although, I honestly think this "case" won't go anywhere either, as Kwok already stated.
Obviously cases like this DO come up in other countries since well......she's in Russia http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif but to be honest why would we even hear about other countries' dumbass lawsuites because honestly most of us (no matter what our country of origin) don't care about our OWN countrie's dumbass lawsuites http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Hell there was a guy not long ago in the states that sued a guy he got into a car accident with because he claimed that getting rear ended in the accident turned him gay, then his wife sued the guy for $250,000 dollars for ruining her husband's ability to "satisfy her womanly needs".

The defendent said that the guy hit the breaks and there was no way NOT to hit him but mister "I'm gay now" somehow won.

I do love what a friend of mine ahd said though "I thought you got rear ended after you turned gay?"

I'd imagine this would be tossed out of court before it ever went anywhere. The Astrologer is probably looking for some publicity.
I tend to agree.

Hey, why work for a living when you can whine and sue somebody?

Reminds me of that old episode of Married with Children where the one guy breaks into the house, and Al punches him. The guy sues Al for it, and wins, so Al punches him in court and countersues him for hurting his hand.

I didn't know that comets are part of astrology. I thought they consider stars and planets but not comets. How could astrologers take into account the effects of all these comets, most of them which we don't even know they exist until they come close enough for our telescopes to detect.

Well remember a comet could look like a star back in the day before they knew what a star was so it's probobly a coverall for every peice of crap that's moving out there.

In my country (Finland) this woman would have been laughed off from the court. But she would have made a good profit of selling this story into gossip magazines and complaining how her work is made impossible by government. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
