I WONDER WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LEGAL THEORY THAT WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS ARE VALID ONLY IF THEY ARE PRESENTED WITH A STYLE OF TYPOGRAPHY THAT MAKES IT ESPECIALLY UNLIKELY THAT ANY USER WILL EVER FEEL INCLINED TO TRY TO READ THEM CAREFULLY, SUCH AS BY USING ALL-UPPERCASE LETTERS TO MAKE THEM EFFECTIVELY UNREADABLE. PERHAPS THE PRESENCE OF LOWERCASE LETTERS IN THIS PARAGRAPH IS JUST AN EDITING MISTAKE? SURELY IT CANNOT BE MEANT TO READ THAT WAY IN THE FINAL LICENSE. -- Henning Makholm "But I am a Sunni Muslim," the bemused Arab said. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
