lawyerspeak
As a side note, don't you just love what I call lawyerspeak? It's in all the car dealer and 'ask your doctor' commercials. It's the part after the really good deal in the car ad sounds way too good to be true, the guy with the low droning voice that goes way too fast to be understood tells you why the deal is too good to be true if you pass the challenge of keeping up with him. In other words, it's the part the legal department made the company put in the commercial to keep them from being sued, but they want squeezed into as few of their 30 seconds of time as possible. They do it in the 'ask your doctor' ads when they run through the side effects of whatever medication they are pushing. I'm waiting for the one that goes, "In rare cases, a penis will unexplicably spring forth from your scalp, bringing to fruition that name you were called in middle school." That won't happen though. Lawyerspeak doesn't use words like 'fruition'.
