16 lines, that's nothing. Where I work we used to have a guy known
as 'big Chris', and he had a sig which he occasionally used which 
was 128 lines !!! (Usually when he was angry :-) )

Cheers,

Will.

That's entirely his option, but netiquette dictates (whether you agree
with the concept of 'netiquette' or not) that a sig should be 4 lines
max. I must admit, I get sick of reading news to see signature files
which are bigger than the messages they're appended to... :/

ATB, Frank.
