I concur also concerning the abdication of personal responsibility and the someone else to blame philosophy. Nonetheless, sometimes one is injured and it is someone else's fault. Anyone living in NH knows about the possibility of roof collapse, particularly a commercial enterprise, and IF Irwin's was negligent about not having the roof shoveled, then, IMO, they do bear some responsibility. Certainly, anyone leaving their boat and paying for storage should have some expectation that reasonable precautions be taken to protect the building. And, I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV.
