First and foremost, I do not make a habit of taking a list off topic with
trival nonsense.
As to the issue of my signature... My grandfather, my father, my
mother-in-law as well as many cousins, newphews and the like and a large
portition of my friends served in Vietnam. The point is that we DON'T
forget these brave people died defending the rights and privledges the are
often taken for granted. As with any memorial, its purpose is to remind us
of what 2/3 of the world does not have - freedom, wheather it be of choice
of food or lifestyle or the many other facets of our society that counties
like Iraq are still struggling to obtain.
As to my being able to control my signature... since I built my server,
registered the domain and pay $150+ a month for my provider, I'd say that
should be obvious.
Lists and groups that have restrictions on signatures, I abide by. To my
knowledge and in viewing the many various signatures here, I do not see mine
a problem.
I will NOT address this issue any further in this list.
List moderator, my apologies for this message being off topic.
