Would you shorten your sig please! It's very interesting but also
irritating having to scroll through 11 superfluous lines of text every
time you post.

It would be if you had to. My sig changes frequently, so you don't.

Also, why do you have to scroll through it? It's at the bottom, and i
don't top-post!

The accepted usenet convention is that a sig. should not exceed four
lines.

Oh, i know. And most of mine don't. But i like that quote ...

Some people get upset if they are exceeded.

.... and i'm willing to upset a few people once in a blue moon to use it!
