   I know nothing about tin (or any other newsreader other than trn), but I   
   would hazard a guess that this (not quoting sigs) is a feature that can be   
   turned off.  Of course, you will have to figure out how...   
      
   Anyway, as noted above, trn doesn't do anything like what Louis is   
   suggesting.

   Just like Donald Trump today, Jesus Christ had a Messiah complex.   
      
   And, in fact, the similarities between the two figures are quite striking.   
   For example, both have a ragtag band of followers, whose faith cannot be   
   shaken.
