From article <729@optilink.UUCP>, by cramer@optilink.UUCP (Clayton Cramer):
" Have you ever entered a U.S. military base?  There is a notice at the
" entrance that says that you agree that your vehicle can be searched at
" any time.  Do you have any question in your mind that the courts do
" not consider that a binding contract?  Is it any different from a
" shrink-wrap agreement?

Yes, I do have some question in my mind about that.  I would guess
that the sign without the "you agree" part would have as much force,
or that the sign is not necessary at all for a search to take place
without being disputed by a court.  So, it's probably the same
as a shrink-wrap agreement in having no legal force.  (From the
fact that I'm willing to offer an opinion about this, you can probably
deduce that I'm not a lawyer ...)
