So then, you won't mind if I start including some inappropriate sexual or racial comments in my sigs? Religion is every bit as offensive to me, as those are to others.
Sadly, we've already got that. Check out the postings of "JB

Quite. I did take this (JB's comparing categories of human being to cockroaches etc.) up on the list a little while ago, but found that more people wanted me to shut up than were prepared to ask the guy to lose his racist sig. It would have been interesting to see what the fallout would have been if it had been another race that was being compared to insects; however, I respectfully submit once again that in order to keep this kind of exchange of taking of offence to a minimum it would help if people limit their sigs to name and address. All best Fergus
