Can we live with Yahoo-Geocities new terms of service?

Hi:

Yahoo has had to revise its term of service.  Can we agree to live with
these and leave our website where it already is?  I need answers by
Saturday since they will be deleting our website on Monday.

These are the new terms of service (at least the part that was of concern):

7. CONTENT SUBMITTED TO YAHOO GEOCITIES
       Yahoo does not claim ownership of the Content you place on your
Yahoo GeoCities Site. By submitting Content to Yahoo for inclusion on your
Yahoo GeoCities Site, you grant Yahoo the world-wide, royalty-free, and
non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content
solely for the purpose of displaying, distributing and promoting your Yahoo
GeoCities Site on Yahoo's Internet properties. This license exists only for
as long as you continue to be a Yahoo GeoCities homesteader and shall be
terminated at the time your Yahoo GeoCities Site is terminated.

I, for one, sure like these terms better!
