   Ah but I invoke counter-claim 23784/B which clearly states that   
   blank lines don't count!   
      
   Seriously, I think we can be a little more relaxed about this kind   
   of thing now in our much reduced circumstances.   
   When there were 200 posts a day it could become annoying I   
   guess to see the same long sigs over and over again, but I don't   
   think that really is of concern now!   
      
   I think we can also drop the 'no OT posts' rule as well :)

   You've reached Col's nostalgic sig of the month!   
      
   Vote Col, vote sensible.
