Since I am not a lawyer and therefore unfamiliar with the potential liabilities I might incur by not including that disclaimer, I would rather cover my ass.

Also, are you a lawyer, and is that legal advice? :)

There are no repurcussions for not having that antiquated disclaimer. Which wouldn't hold up even if there was some magic that allowed a case to be brought
