Concerning greg (Greg Johnson at the University of Wisconsin--Madison)'s
plea for full-name signatures, let me say that the only thing that
annoys me more than a first-name signature is a loging name signature, e.g.:

	From dopey!sneezy!ihxyz!ihuvw!mhwhoami!honoplacelike!somewhere!jge
	Subject: personal opinions

	Well, I think, blah, blah, blah, blah.

	Sincerely yours,
	jge

Another pet peeve:  articles that start out,
	Yes, I agree with that, but with regard to the third point ...

Just because the message you are replying to is still sitting on your
screen, doesn't mean anybody else has seen it recently (or yet!).

Common guys, use a little common sense!
