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.
