   I use the "<" and ">" in my posts to denote what would on IRC be   
   considered "an action". ;-)  Most people on Usenet use a pair of   
   asterisks for that sort of comments, but then that tends to get   
   interpreted by the newsreader as something which must show in bold, and   
   I was not coughing /that/ loud. :p
