As the other comments already say this is already covered by another
section. In general you should stay with the established licenses, as they
are reasonably well-tested. Adding/modifying clauses could open up weird
holes etc.

Apart from that - Why do have these no-warranty clauses always have to be
written in ALL CAPS? I mean, they're already difficult enough to
understand and ALL CAPS makes it even harder. On the other hand, exactly
that migh be the reason...
