What's the problem with these disclaimers in signatures?

DISCLAIMER: IF YOU RECEIVE THIS EMAIL IN ERROR, YOU ARE HEREBY LEGALLY OBLIGED TO PHYSICALLY DESTROY ALL MEDIA WHICH EVER CONTAINED THE MAIL (HARD DISKS, MEMORY, ETC. OF BOTH THE WORKSTATION AND THE MAIL SERVERS), ALONG WITH ALL MATERIAL USED TO TRANSFER, LIQUIDATE ANY COWORKERS WHICH MIGHT HAVE HAD A GLANCE OF THE EMAIL (ESPECIALLY THE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATORS), AND RASP YOUR HEAD OFF WITH A VERY FINE GRATER.
For starters, they're barely readable when they're in all-caps :-)
My personal favourite is:
By sending email to me or to a mailing list to which I subscribe, and appending more than 4 lines of legalese at the end, you are expressly permitting me to use your email and others coming from your domain as I see fit; by posting you are accepting that your long legally sounding signature is invalid.
