Richard, what colour's your wherewithall and is it anything like an overall? Hey, since I reckon all the newusers have been scared off why don't we change the name of this newsgroup to something more appropriate like news.oldusers.funny? Ooh, this is about .sigs isn't it? Look what I found in eunet.jokes (disclaimer: I don't read eunet.jokes but Helen, who has the terminal next to mine, does).

'Cept it won't work. You've been on the net too long to be a .newuser, but not long enough to be an .olduser. So we may have to make alt.transitional.users for you and your ilk.
