Al,

I really don't know why you must complain about Eric's sig. I
personally like them just as they are, but thats strictly besides the
point. IMHO, it is just not very intresting to hear you say:

> Eric, it's getting tiresome. Kindly learn what the fsck McQ is, OK?

Especially after all of the brilliant things I have heard you say. It
really seems like a childish move. Let the man have his freakin sig for
crying out loud!! At any rate, I'm just throwin' in my 2 cents. OK,
now can we get back on topic? Good.

I hope no offense is taken and no reply necessary.. But if I mistaken,
then I look forward to your, in all probablity, entertaining reply
(maybe off this list though). :)

Regards,
David
