A fire started by an Oasis watercooler destroyed this company, and Chubb insurance is refusing to pay because the owner was risking his life rescuing a cat and six kittens and not some data tapes from the burning office building!
   This is simply the most ludicrous thing I believe I have ever heard! Who do these bastards think they are?!? This is supposed to be a God fearing nation where all Americans are supposed to help other fellow Americans in their time of need. In this case the companies that have shafted this poor man have taken their high-falutin' selves and put them "above" Mr. Judd here.
   And how many of them would risk their own lives to save some innocent kittens like our friend Dan Judd did in the winter of 1998.
   This man is getting the shaft from a bunch of thieves at Oasis watercoolers, and the lawyers at Chubb Insurance are thinking this is funny. I don't like it! It is a shame that such a tragedy would happen in a nation as fine as ours. i think that we should all do our part to help this man in his time of need. And Oasis and Chubb should pay what they owe and get this settled.

   EPD is asking everyone to please help us spread the word about this disgusting behavior. Boycott Oasis Watercoolers, don't insure with Chubb Insurance, and above all:
Make SURE there is not an Oasis Watercooler in your home, or where your children go to school.
Contact your school board and have them removed. If your child is hurt or, God forbid, killed by one of these Oasis Watercoolers, you won't want to hear, "Unfortunately, we don't insure children." It takes very little to check, and even less time to replace it, and could save you so much grief. Let's face it, all we lost was our jobs and business. I'd hate to see someone else lose a child.

Norm Murphy, Oasis Manufacturing:    "We're not paying you anything. We are investigating. We will continue to do so."  "Didn't you have time to get both? Data and cats? We only pay for actual damages."

Glen Day, VP, Chubb Insurance:    "I'm the biggest catlover in the world, but you made the decision to get those cats out instead of your company's files. Unfortunately, we don't insure cats."
Donna Lovre, Chubb Public Relations Manager    "I am sorry but I still don't understand what the issue is."

Quite a few people, including Actresses and MIS Managers, Models and Truck Drivers, Insurance Adjusters, even Oasis employees and hundreds of other people also object to burning kittens to save files! Visit our list of 'copycat' sites to see what they have to say on their own web sites
