asterisk users - Aug 2004 - Teliax TOS copied from Vonage?

TelIAX, one of the new VoIP-to-PSTN gateway providers, has their terms 
of service posted on their signup page:

http://teliax.com/user_admin/signup/s1.php

They look strangely familiar--it's exactly the same as 
http://www.vonage.com/features_terms_service.php with s/Vonage/Teliax/. 
(And it's cut off about halfway through). Anyone else notice this?

It is my understanding, at least in the United States, that it is not 
possible to copyright contracts.  Thus, if someone has a contract you 
like, you may use it.  (I am not a lawyer.  Use my advice at your 
peril.)  Using someone else's blood-mon... er, lawyer's fees, seems 
like a wise business decision if you're content with the result of a 
non-customized contract.
