-- I'm In Violation --

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The phrase "a laugh-a-minute" comes to mind...

Recently ran across the "terms of use" section of K.J. Hepperle's website. It reads verbatim as follows (if you can believe it); emphasis added:
"This site is owned and operated by Joe Hepperle. Your access and use of this Site is subject to the following terms and conditions ("Terms and Conditions"), and all applicable laws. By accessing and browsing the Site, you accept, without limitation or qualification, the Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with any of the below Terms and Conditions, do not use the Site.

Terms and Conditions:
1) By reading anything on this site, you agree that it is true.
2) You further agree to hold harmless and indemnify Joe Hepperle for any shortcomings -- yours or his.
3) You agree to leave the site immediately the moment you sense anything wrong or inappropriate. "
Boy, am I in violation; and I wonder if Cornell realizes that if they conclude that Daniel Rainsong has not re-discovered the Ivory-billed Woodpecker in the Sabine River Basin then they can never access Joe's site again, for gosh sakes.

(almost reminds me a bit of the old sentence paradox from logic: "This statement is false.")
