[SEL] Private shows

[Gary Epps]

Tom, what this says is that those bringing the exhibits bear all the 
liability for injury.  If the organizors or the county is sued they 
defend themselves and then pass their defense costs back to you if it 
was your property/action that injured someone.  Whether or not it was 
due to your careless or faulty equipment.

The phrase "machinery in motion" has scared insurors for years.  In my 
first life I was an insurance company casualty/property underwriter, you 
  know, the person that writes the restrictive endorsements that helps 
the insurance company keep as much of the premium as possible for profit.
