If I send snail-mail to the 'president' instead of 'President', does it get
delivered? If I send e-mail to him and he's on a Unix host, will it get

So, I don't have a .sig, I'm opposed to the concept. But some stupid piece of
software decided that you can't make a posting where you quote more than you
say, even though the total article size is less than 15 lines. I guess it is
deemed appropriate for me to waste more bandwidth and bore you with my whining.
