    I have to agree with Christine, I have two different medical alert
    designs, one the "traditional Star of life, and also a round disk
    with a serpent wound round a staff and the words Medical alert arched
    around it. Today while shopping at the Wal-Mart for dog food I
    stopped at the jewelry counter (it's fun to listen to totally
    untrained people try and explain the differences in their gem stones
    and Diamond grades) when Up jump the devil here was a new type of
    medical alert jewelry unlike any other I have seen, SO I am guessing
    (notice I didn't say assuming) that there is a very limited share of
    liability regarding any specific shape or design of Medical Alert
    jewelry as for it not being recognized by a health care or emergency
    medical personnel. 

    I realize that we live in a completely asinine, over litigious
    society, that will sue any one for any reason! and there are enough
    money grubbing attorney's that will handle it, I once had a lady try
    and sue me because she had an allergic reaction to sterling silver
    earring studs. In New Mexico the suit didn't get very far So I hope I
    can still sell these Medical alert tags, 

Cheers Y'all
