You know, when you write this way, it sounds like you're talking
behind my back. I must just be feeling sensitive today.
Anyway, for all you people who beg for seperators, I have this to
say, I'm not going to do it! I did go back and add a blank line though.
That was, I'll admit, an oversight on my behalf. I thinking my mailer
puts that in when I put my old .sig back in.



Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal
names more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves,
they answered to another name, because if another discovered their real
name, it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.

It'd be talking behind your back if it was done by private email. It's on
the list, out in the open, so you can see exactly what we say about you...

More than one open line between the message and .sig works for me. With
only one empty line it gets confusing, though.
