In Indiana we have a law about cleaning the ice and snow off of sidewalks and such and if the merchants don't- they can be fined. They, also, have the merchants' association so they all have to pay liability insurance. Of course a lot of Americans are sue happy-there was a TV show about people staging falls on wet floors in hospitals to get money-the insurance investigators followed them to see if they really were hurt-most of them weren't- it was all a big scam. Glad you're alright-wish it would be crisp here-blech-85F and the humidity is horrid.
