The saying "A bad corn promise is better than a good lawsuit" makes no sense. Perhaps, somebody read once the proverb without glasses and saw the letter **m** in the word COmPROMISE as **r n**. So the beautiful proverb "A bad compromise is better than a good lawsuit" became a foolish nonsense which, by modern COPY & PASTE system, spread all over the net. What is more fun is that on Russian sites dealing in proverbs, the expression **A bad corn promise** is translated as **Плохой компромисс (PLOKHOY KOMPROMISS)** meaning... **A bad compromise**!!!
