Dan is right, only a lawyer can be held to a contract.  Presumably, the rest
of us aren't able to sign our rights away.  Back in my earlier life, we were
doing a team building thing in Vermont.  Aetna wanted us to sign a waiver
releasing them of all liability.  My friend was a contracts attorney and she
said if she signed it, it would stick, but the rest of could go ahead and
sign it without worry.  A hidden value of being a lay person!

Be careful here Dan could be right in some circumstances but it is far far 
from a guaranty. It depends an awful lot on Who What When and Where. I have been 
down this road a number of times and I have seen lots of ordinary people sign 
some pretty one sided contracts that were found to be legal and enforceable 
in court. A better policy would be to always assume you will be held to what 
you agree to in writing.
