	If you're reading at 300 baud, you're either hard-core, in which
	case you won't bitch about an extra 1% of the letter body being
	signiature, or else you're friggin' nuts.  So shut up already,
	and move on up to 9600 baud.

P.S.	For those of you new to the net, this is a flame.  It's not a
	very intense flame, but you only get what you pay for.
