    Points for honesty, at least.

    i cant access videos in China but did anyone see MTR staff grabbing fire extinguishers and trying to put the small fire out or just run around like headless chicken, if they did run around with NO CLUE on what to do then maybe the victims can sue MTR for not being fully trained and prepared for emergencies. get some $$$$ from the big corp

    Perfectly reasonable response. Anyone is free to "have a go". We should not as a society encourage them though.

    Don't recall seeing any of the victims of the London tube bombings (and I don't imagine any of the victims of the failed attack on Friday) trying to sue TfL...

    Perfectly sad response.
    Honest and expected from many people around the world but a cynical and sad reply.
    This is not against the OP, it's simply a sad reflection of human nature.

    To add,

    “The measure of a man sir, is not in money, position, station, or possessions. These things mean nothing. The measure of a man is in his character, wisdom, ability, aliveness, intimacy, creativity, courage, fearlessness, perspective, independence, and maturity. You seem terribly impressed with the former, sir, which suggests you are seriously lacking in the latter.”

    Did you really not understand his post? That's really sad and says a lot more about you than him.

    Let me sum in up.

    Honesty is the best policy. Although his quote was far deeper and more compelling than just that.
