Rails - Aug 2010 - check box for terms and conditions

Is there a smart way or example for listing terms and conditions and
ensuring that they have been read?

I''m a relative noob to RonR and I''d like to find a good way to
do this?
I don''t want to store anything in the db, so I just need validation,
how
best to do this?

Thanks

No, there never was and (within reason) never will be.  There is,
however, a way to ensure that the checkbox *saying* they have read it
and agree to it, is checked.  :-)  See

http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Validations/ClassMethods.html#M001396

for the validates_acceptance_of method on ActiveRecord.  It
"Encapsulates the pattern of wanting to validate the acceptance of a
terms of service check box (or similar agreement)."
