Although I recognize that we live in a litigious society, that
the Federal Government, especially, is a bureaucracy run amock
and feeds on this kind of documentation, and that everyone is
running scared of the laws, regulations, and court decisions that
constitute one humongous "Lawyer's Protection Act" --

If any of the three museums or two public library branches
where I volunteer would require me to sign such a form, I
would tell them that my volunteer services with them just
came to a screeching halt.
