Depends on how you view it - for me, the first "Thomas" is 'signing' my posting (and I myself find i very strange if that's done in the signature - it always looks like the posting isn't 'closed' properly to me. But that's entirely personal), whereas the signature gives my full name and a place to find some extra information, should one so desire. And of course my motto. ;-) Depending on the list, I choose to add bits and pieces, as long as I don't exceed the four lines. So, in short: To me, it makes perfect sense... ;-) Cheerio, Thomas -- ===> Netiquette - read it, use it: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1855.html <=== ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thomas Ribbrock http://www.ribbrock.org "You have to live on the edge of reality - to make your dreams come true!"
