And he's right (I'm not sure what a cookie means in this context, though).

I say this in the nicest way possible - could certain people please
reconsider the relevance of their signature lines? Is it really necessary
to post a Smart Ass One Liner followed by about 1K of signature,
disclaimers, little drawings in ASCII, quotations from the unspeakable
Douglas Adams (spit), and readings from the Articles of War? 

Ploughing through it all - particularly the same one several times in one
INFO-ATARI16 Digest - can become a distinct pain in the exhaust port,
besides the waste of bandwidth; in some cases the actual message (all
hundred or so characters of it) is very hard to spot in amongst the
embroidery, chromework and go-faster stripes.

Younger Members will probably consider me somewhat old-fashioned in that I
still (even after ten years of Thatcher) consider content to be more
important than presentation. They are right. I am. It is.  

Thank you all.
