Ah, the wonders of technology. Auto-quoting, sigs, addition of v-card sigs
which can have URLs to animated gifs, auto-scanning of outbound mail for
viruses, and free-email services which stick ad lines at the bottom of
everything else when it goes through their systems. Does content really
expand to fill available bandwidth? Personally, I can't wait for the day
when I'll be able to e-mail an XML mail package containing a movie of
myself saying what I could have typed, complete with some of those
scrolling digital onscreen graphics like the TV companies use, and a
semi-transparent corner overlay with an ad from whatever service it is I'm
using to send it. ;-)

OK, I'll pry my tongue away from my cheek now.

But seriously, Dave. I've been trying to come up with a good replacement
sig, since the CBDTPA is dead for a while. Bashing M$ just isn't unique
enough, the Surrealistic Compliment Generator has been gone for over a
year, and not all of my mail recipients would want to hear about this:

Dunno. Guess I'll just go watch StarTrek Voyager (yawn), or maybe
Highlander 2. (And they said there could be only one!?)

Later,
