Head over to the AdamsDrafting blog and add it to your blogreader for 2007 - you’ll learn a lot about the importance of language and clear drafting.  A recent post shows how even the smallest things can make a great difference when it comes to contracts:

"If you can’t get enough of the contract dispute between Rogers Communications Inc. and Aliant Inc.—the one about the comma—you should check out this article in today’s Globe and Mail. (And see here and here for my previous posts on the subject.)

This article notes that the dispute has “ignited an international debate over the importance of language.” It suggests that a ruling is expected in the next few months; that’s what I’ve heard, too."
