*GPL ... approaching 1990s?

Hi,

I was contemplating to use LGPL for a small project of mine (in the end I've decided otherwise for other reasons) but I was again struck by the sheer nonsense of attaching 481 lines long COPYING.LGPL to 194 lines long script. Would there be anything wrong with replacing the standard LGPL copyright blurb with this acknowledging an existence of the Internet?
