This is some long-winded disclaimer text that would automatically get wrapped
at 40 characters. This helps make the text easier to read in mail programs that
do not wrap sentences for you.
{/textformat}

<?php

// get $contact_info from db or other resource here

$smarty->assign('contact_info',$contact_info);
