I am sorry for suggesting that people should contact this company to
talk about the disclaimer. I thought that maybe if enough people contacted

If you add some sort of END marker, you might as well add
a BEGIN marker of some sort as well, in case over-zealous
corporate e-mail security-types get wind of what's going

that these disclaimers appear.
