Oh, good. I think I'll sue my insurance company for charging me
more for auto insurance than they charge women.

*****************************************************
Sorry, the decision only applied to employee insurance programs, which are 
covered under the civil rights act.  Insurance bought on the open market
is not covered by it.  Also, the court specifically said that plaintiffs cannot
collect for past damages, only that the companies must change their 
methods in the future.
