Bah.... Bruce come on. The people that are sending the emails with those
disclaimers "DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE". They are being forced to do so by
upper management and legal.

Should we penalize the poor guy in IT that just wants to use our great
product because his boss and attorney's are idiots? If we did that, most
people on this list would be penalized. Regardless of the legal disclaimer.
