Really? It should have been 4 for that post, as I was trying to make another
point. Maybe a few years ago 4 lines was deemed ample for a sig, but these days
people have websites, ICQ's, email, mailing lists in their sigs. I think that
there should be an allowance to a maxium of about 10 lines, as people are doing
alot more things these days. Or have I lost the plot somewhere?
