Well, we all need to read the agreements we agree to. :) Since 90% of us are using a Windows environment right now, did any of you read _all_ that fine print from Microsoft? We 'agree' to all sorts of limitations, penalties, and giving up our rights. In exchange, Microsoft agrees to provide us a CD or set of disks that does not have any surface media errors on it - software does _not_ have to work tho, only the media is good. _Just_ a tad one-sided. How about the GMO seeds? Same licencing agreement - we farmers are at fault for _anything_, and only licence the seed. But the company providing the seed is _not_ liable for anything. We already agree to all the severe penalties if we do anything _wrong_ with the seeds. So, we have to prove ourselves innocent if the seed company imposes any penalties upon us. We are reading the fine print, aren't we? Right? I'm sure your sale had lots of fine print on it, if you read it the bank has all the rights, and you have none. Part of this is our own fault, as the liability laws in this country have made it cheaper for businesses to hire expensive lawyers to defend against frivolious lawsuits. In their spare time, these lawyers can come up with all sorts of interesting paperwork to ensure The Company has an airtight way of representing itself, while we individual consumers sign away our rights, not considering the implications until it affects us individually. We really should be paying more attention to all this, and have The Company sign our own purchase agreements when we walk into the building, protecting our rights. Yea, that will happen. --->Paul

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
