Here's a little more about Bill from his website.
William Marler began litigating foodborne illness cases in 1993, when he represented Brianne Kiner, the most seriously injured survivor of the Jack in the Box E. coli O157:H7 outbreak, resulting in her landmark $15.6 million settlement. Marler has focused his practice on representing individuals in litigation resulting from E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, hepatitis A, and other food contamination cases. He has represented victims of nearly every large foodborne illness outbreak in the United States against such companies as Wholesale Club, Chili's, Chi-Chi's, ConAgra, Dole, Excel, Golden Corral, KFC, Sheetz, Sizzler, Supervalu, and Wendy's, securing over $300,000,000 for his clients.
I found this interesting, Bill took three majors in college.
1982 - B.A.s Political Science, Economics, English Washington State University
Bill's latest article on his blog is about 11 people getting sick from raw milk
Seattle attorney Bill Marler said that doesn't mean raw milk is safe. Marler has represented several clients, or their survivors, in food-borne illness cases, even taking on Con-Agra.
"The amount of raw milk that is sold commercially is actually quite small and is unfortunately growing," he said. "The number of illnesses and the frequency of illnesses, in my opinion, certainly indicates that it is a growing problem, not a shrinking one you can ignore."

The battle to become the owner of the first Twitter account that has 1 million followers has ended. It was a clash between the old TV, represented now by CNNbrk (CNN breaking news), and the new kid on the block Ashton Kutcher. Ashton Kutcher won the battle to become the first Twitter millionaire. Is that the anti-Slumdog?
OK, I am not looking for 1M followers - just 25,000 more than the 1,650 I have today. So, I if I get 25,000 followers by the end of the month, I'll donate $25,000 to the best charity twitter folks come up with.
Emphasis added was mine. We only have 13 days to get this done. So please help out and spread the word around. If you have a charity that you favor, send Bill a tweet and point him in the right direction.
