Here some random thoughts. 

It occurs to me that you could do something like Creative Commons, for 
instance: the "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported" license has a 
proper legal document at 
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/legalcode   but they also have 
the "Human readable summary" http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/  
where they say "This is a human-readable summary of the Legal Code (the full 
license)."  I'm pointing at this, because the human-readable summary is 
probably what you really need non-legal people to read, and what people would 
be more interested in, since it makes sense, because most of us are not 
lawyers. The point being that it might be possible to get people curious about 
a full T&C through a human-readable version, and it might be actually a better 
way to introduce people to legal terms. 

Best, 

Leonardo.
