    A thousand pardons since I've been meaning to post this here back in October
    2007. But...I forgot. :eek:

    Anyway, feel free to read the decision below:

    While it's no guarantee that other courts will decide it in the same manner as
    the NY Supreme Court did in that dispute, that oughta give you an idea what
    you're possibly up against.

    End users, one moral lesson you can get from this is RTFP and ask questions
    before jumping in. Hosts, make sure your contracts are specifically worded,
    easy (?) to understand, and in compliance with your jurisdiction's applicable
    laws.

    Enjoy. :D
