If this isn't dismissed as frivolous, then there is no hope.
A woman whose sister died in the Sept. 11 attacks filed a lawsuit over last week's steam pipe eruption in Manhattan, saying Tuesday that the explosion brought back horrible memories.
Francine Dorf's lawsuit accuses Consolidated Edison of negligence, saying the utility didn't properly maintain the pipe that ruptured outside her office and sent a geyser of steam, mud and asbestos-tainted debris over the neighborhood near Grand Central Terminal.
"I thought a building was going to collapse," said Dorf, 52, a legal secretary. She is seeking unspecified damages.
The legacy of Cindy Sheehan lives on: a loved one's death is used as absolute moral authority. This lawsuit is like the Kevin Bacon Game. Let's see, a steam pipe explodes, debris is everywhere, World Trade Center attacks had debris, and that means Consolidated Edison caused 9/11. Nice.
