This is either highly coincidental or a rip off of "Don't eat that!", based in PDX: http://www.flickr.com/photos/aaronpk/5049962228/

off topic pet peeve: why do people take computer screenshots with a CAMERA? That's like typing an email, printing it out and slapping postage on it.

These guys will get their buts sued to oblivion. Is it libel? It will be, the minute they are out of date or have a data error.

The place isn't closed, because the violations are not bad enough. If they Should be closed, then the health code is not strict enough. Is it right to panic people with alarmist reports? Are diners sophisticated enough to interpret those reports?
