In terms of
risk exposure for a single outing, comparing rock climbing to flying is
not
far off from comparing flying to driving.


Per mile traveled? I'd certainly expect it to be different! :-) :-)


Funny, yet exactly my point in a following post.

What is with all of the extra lines in your .sig? Or am I the only one

No, you are not the only one seeing it.



Do not adjust your set. Newsfeeds, my current news provider, adds their
own BS advertising to the bottom of all of their subscribers' posts. Other
than going with another news provider, there is nothing I can do about it.

As a form of protest, though, I do add a few carriage returns after my name
in my sig in an attempt to push their garbage way down and out of view of
most PC-based newsreaders.


I understand, but since I usually use the "space bar" method of reading
in Netscape, I get to see it anyway and now require one more keystroke
for the "pleasure" of reading it.

Just an FYI.

Be careful. Wouldn't want you breaking a nail during that extra keystroke.

What I expected. You'd rather inconvenience all of us with every
message rather than make a one-time modification to your signature.

And I thought we really bonded in that US Airways thread...

However, I agree that plonking was your only logical move, given the duress
those single keystrokes would have caused you down the road.

I thought it was funny, personally. If I plonked folks on as little merit
as he did you, he would've been in my killfile a long time ago.

I guess some people just have a hard time dealing. With everything.

It ranks as one of the most trivial reasons I have seen.

Didn't you say that the extra lines are added by your newsfeed provider?

If that is the case, not only was it trivial, but the response was asinine.
