interesting disclamer notice from rental car receipt

So I was sitting around waiting to be dropped off after returning my rental car at enterprise today and which I was waiting I decided to take a look at the back of the receipt where they print terms and conditions of your rental, something I guess most people don't do and usually just sign the line where you state that you agree with all the terms, well that's what I do anyways, who has time to go through pages of terms, unless you can take the receipt home to read for a day or 2. Well anyway so under the Damages to. Loss or Theft of. Vehicle and Related costs clause it reads: "Renter accepts responsibility for damage to, loss or theft of vehicle or any part of accessory regardless of fault or negligence of Renter or any other person or act of God". That last item which I bolded brought a smirk to my face, so if some act of god, maybe a swarm of locusts happens to hit the car scratching it more then the 5" damage limit or if a deluge of frogs happen to fall from the sky and dent the car, or if Zeus decides to to throw a lightning bolt, I guess I'm responsible :) (hope I haven't offended anyone, just trying to be a little sarcastic here). Anyway I guess you can find interesting things in the Terms and Conditions if one were to read them thoroughly.
