James,
Who sues whom for what is totally out of control. I'm sure your memory about a suit involving a fraternity and a third party vendor is correct. The climate seems to be, "let's throw mud at everyone and see who it sticks to."
We will never eliminate liability problems, but must try to minimize them. Perhaps your solutions will help some.
"Hanging out" certainly is a part of the problem. A lot of damage is caused by, and a lot of injuries happen to non-members on our properties.
So, do we make all houses substance free and not allow anybody in except members? I don't think either will work -- but I can see how many organizations will grasp at those straws.
In my mind it still comes back to taking responsibility on the chapter level to "do the right things."
