The Washington Post reports from Winsted, CT on the American Museum of Tort Law, “the two-decade, nearly $3 million dream of consumer advocate and persistent presidential candidate Ralph Nader,” complete with “a cartoon exploding Pinto, cartoon cigarettes, cartoon asbestos, a cartoon depicting that historic moment in torts when a 190-degree cup of McDonald’s coffee burned Scalding Crusader Stella Liebeck.” The museum is “dedicated to torts, the law of wrongful injuries. ‘It’s the first law museum in North America of any kind,’ says Nader, 81, stooped, a tad grayer, offering a tour of his baby, 6,000 square feet of exhibit space in a former bank building.”
