Everyone wants to run to a lawyer and "stick it to the man" when they screw up. Not having flood insurance, coffee that's too hot, whatever... The civil courts are not meant to be lottery tickets people.
If you think Lott has a case, then perhaps you also think that you could sue Porsche for the cost of your 911 because the car salesman didn't specifically tell you that a 911 is NOT an amphibious vehicle...

Rick, I completely agree RE: personal accountability. Personally, I think a good business/businessman informs his customers. When I managed a custom media sales department for an IT magazine, half of our pitch was education, "this is what you need and why."
A good insurance person would/should upsell a flood policy.
