Warning (golden oldie)

As safety experts and concerned citizens, we applaud the recent trend towards legislation that requires the prominent placing of warnings on products that present hazards to the general public. Yet we must also offer the cautionary thought that such warnings, however well- intentioned, merely scratch the surface of what is really necessary in this important area.

One Product Warning as written by a Quantam Physicist:

WARNING:

This Product Attracts Every Other Piece of Matter in the Universe, Including the Products of Other Manufacturers, with a Force Proportional to the Product of the Masses and Inversely Proportional to the Square of the Distance Between Them.

[The real hoot hear is that the goober who sent this out posts from a university lampooned for the (alleged) intellectual limitations of the student body. Yet a joke based on gravitation is said to be from a "Quantam Physicist". Perchance the joke is that quantum is misspelled.
