I was just wiki-surfing and LOL'd at the following:
On June 6, 2007 Bork filed suit in federal court in New York City against the Yale Club over an incident that had occurred a year earlier. Bork alleged that, while trying to reach the dais to speak at an event, he fell, because of the Yale Club's failure to provide any steps or handrail between the floor and the dais.[11] According to the complaint, Bork's injuries required surgery, immobilized him for months, forced him to use a cane, and left him with a limp. [12] Ted Frank, a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, who, like Bork, has been a proponent of "tort reform" measures to restrict plaintiffs' rights, criticized the suit as "embarrassingly silly".
