I see your point on wanting to protect yourself but, if you were looking to me to provide you with a service and made a fuss about abiding by certain indemnity clauses which are key to protect me... no offense but I would want nothing to do with you - similar to one of my tenants trying to 'strike out' clauses in one of my leases - I would want nothing to do with that and I'm sure most businesses will take that stance as well. 

If you're a Contractor on here don't take offense - I know that you have to run a business too and have your own mark-ups to survive, however, at this time I am not in a position to pay such ppl.

Cause if not, then the brainless argument really does have some gravitas :)I have to agree with Michael that your comment is offensive Ben. 

Illegal is technically the right term, but it makes it sound like this enormous offense.

Perhaps if he were a "cool guy" who was a commercial fisherman or professional BMX biker on the side he would :)Sorry for the side-rant, but I've been asking myself that about Bill and others in the forum with way more expertise than those who are on the podcasts (no offense intended to them).
