Your lawyer comment makes me think of a funny story from the 1990's. Yes, lawyers _ARE_ different. We sell software, and there is a license agreement. It's about 3,000 words, and contains the phrase "on your own data" (among the other 2,996 words). One customer, who was a service bureau (operates on other people's data) had a problem with that phrase. Their lawyer sent a suggested addendum to our license containing about 2,000 words listing and defining the owners of the data on which our product could be used under that license. I studied the document at length, and it appeared to express things fairly, but something just didn't sit right. So, I called her on the phone and suggested we strike the four offensive words and run the license agreement without her additions. She said, "That's exactly what we want. I just never thought of that!"
