[LINK] a disclaimer I'd really like to see....

[Jan Whitaker]

Since this is Friday, I'll be a bit silly. This from that same humour list 
in the US.  I can't help but think about some of the required additions we 
get from some Linker emails....

>Important. Antidisclaimer. This e-mail is not and cannot, by its
>nature, be confidential. En route from me to you, it will pass across
>the public Internet, easily readable by any number of system
>administrators along the way. If you have received this message by
>mistake, it would be ridiculous for me to tell you not to read it or
>copy to anyone else, because, let's face it, if it's a message
>revealing
>confidential information or that could embarrass me intensely, that's
>precisely what you'll do. Who wouldn't?
>
>Likewise, it is superfluous for me to claim copyright in the contents,
>because I own that anyway, even if you print out a hard copy or
>disseminate this message all over the known Universe. I don't know why
>so many corporate mail servers feel impelled to attach a disclaimer to
>the bottom of every e-mail message saying otherwise. If you don't know
>either, why not e-mail your corporate lawyers and system administrators
>and ask them why they insist on contributing so much to the waste of
>bandwidth.
