    Tobias, I have to tell you that >>Customer is king. When a customer "makes
    a mistake" then it's not his
    own but the vendor's mistake.<< is getting old.

    1. If the customer decided to make a sharp left turn at 120 kph on an icy
    mountain road and slid his car off the side of the cliff...or...

    2. If the customer decided to ignore the product warnings and popped that
    can of beans in the microwave then stood there with his face against the
    window to watch...or...

    3. If the customer decided to go scuba diving at 100 meters, ignored the
    guages that told him he was out of air, then decided to rocket to the
    surface as fast as he could so he could get a breath...

    THE CUSTOMER MADE A MISTAKE
