woah, thats an old thread...

I am guessing thats because YANAL isnt very common at all, but the author 
expected its meaning to be able to be derived from context.  Noting 
similarities with IANAL, which is more common, Should be safe to guess that 
Y stands for a word of the same type as 'I' in the english language.  Not a 
whole lot of Y words, 'You' being the solution.  The first A thus changes 
from 'am' to 'are' to result in something which is more gramatically 
correct.  Then again, I never seen it used before, so I could be wrong, but 
I suspect not.
