Well, the lawyers oughtta like that.
Please don't use the word <http://microsoft.com> "Word<http://microsoft.com>".
It's trademarked by Microsoft <http://microsoft.com>.
Now, I'll <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> probably be sued by MS <http://microsoft.com>,
whoever owns "Conversational <http://www.hurco.com>" _and_
whoever owns "Happy Birthday <http://www.wmg.com>" since I left them in this
email <http://mail.google.com>.
Going for my 15 minutes <http://www.warhol.org>... (or was that 15 seconds?
;^) of fame.
In future, the Internet <http://www.linux.com/> will break down not from
Youtube <http://youtube.com> and other video/high
bandwidth consumers <http://consumers.com> but from the
gigabyte<http://www.gigabyte.com/>s
of required citation <http://www.citation.net/>s, disclaimers
and copyright <http://www.copyright.gov> notices for each and every
word<http://microsoft.com>used in
email <http://mail.google.com>. I have several
friends who work in law offices and often their corporate sigs are much
longer
than the message.
Sorry, this is no place for ranting and I won't do it again ;^)
