Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Besides, what Costas, et al., are calling Bolt's "showboating" was really -- what? He slowed down at the ~80 meter mark and made some arm gestures? THAT'S "showboating"?
And really, did you hear them going off on the other guy in the whatever relay who, and prepare yourself for this, looked around toward the end of the race?
Exactly!
I did not know that was insulting.

Grammar people, how would you parse this:
Company X grants to Company Y, under X's PATENTS, nonexclusive and nontransferable licenses to make, have made, use, lease, sell, import, and otherwise dispose of (and practice methods and processes for the use of) any or all products and services of the kinds which are furnished or used by Company Y or any of its present or RELATED COMPANIES in the operation of the business in which it is engaged on the effective date of this Agreement.
Specifically, what modifies what - especially the phrase "on the effective date of this Agreement." Grammatically, is this referring to the products/ services that were used by Company Y on the effective date of the agreement? Or is this referring to the business that Company Y was in on the effective date of the agreement?
eta: My answer would be that it is referring to the business that Company Y was in on the effective date of the agreement, because when I have to look at things that are this convoluted, I start by taking out what I think is extraneous material, which would leave us with this:
1.01 (a) X grants to Y[snip] nonexclusive and nontransferable licenses to make [snip] any or all products and services of the kinds which are furnished or used by Y [snip] in the operation of the business in which it is engaged on the effective date of this Agreement.
Company X grants to Company Y lisences on the effective date of this Agreement.
