We would greatly appreciate your collective feedback on this.
While online communication channels represent an evolving area of case
law, Joe, it certainly can't hurt to have this placed somewhere on either
the sign-up web page or in the welcome message to a list. Exactly how
much protection this gives you is up for grabs (Example: every amusement
park ride you take has a disclaimer printed somewhere in public view, or
on the ticket itself, but they don't hold up), but it certainly wouldn't
look bad to a judge or jury.
Question: Is this a members-only ListServ, or can anyone join? If the
latter, you might want to include some wording that addresses that, so
that TRoU members know that they could be receiving input from non-members.
