While strolling through alt.comp.freeware, DC was overheard plotting:

Wont work for him, his newsreader strips spaces at the end of every
line upon sending, dont bother as he could care less anyway.

Try these, David.

Done as soon as I get home! Thanks as usual DC

You betcha. More on this in nsr (my thread -- 1 or 2 days old, now).

Hey, it's 1615, here. Miller Time, innit? Go home, man! }:O)

My sig is broken? Ha! Good comeback!
What's next? Correcting my punctuation and grammar?

All you need to do is add a space after the 2 dashes. Then when you are
quoted the newsreader will/should delete your sig so the responder can
start their spew.
BTW 40tude Dialog will take it out anyway.

It doesn't matter, though. There are people who can't follow
a simple conversation and then insist on pointing you to 60
pages of guidelines on the "proper" way to converse on
Usenet. There are too many people involved in these
conversations to insist they use those guidelines. Usenet is
freedom the point where it has become anarchy. Enjoy it
while you can.
I certainly don't consider DC or SINNER my mortal enemies,
but it is fun to have these lively conversations once in a
while.
