I tried to convince Mr. Buckles about his signature way back when.  I tried
to do it politely, assuming he was a newbie that didn't know any better.  He
didn't get the point until Nathan finally hollowed him out over it.  Looks
like he still hasn't.

Tigh:  you've got another opportunity here.  The Apple II areas on usenet
are generally pretty friendly, but if you consistantly use bad nettiquette
even after being told it was bad nettiquette, you'll only succeed in making
enemies.  Trim down your signature, and investigate the purpose of a
newsgroup before you post to it (Nate gave you a list - use it :)

Here's what I suggest you use for a signature:

Tigh Buckles
I go to school at Sidney Jr. High, <some city>, NE
Check out my home page: http://panesu.esu14.k12.ne.us/~bucklest
I just added a physics page!

It doesn't remove any of the information in your existing signature, but
presents it in a more compact way that doesn't fill a whole computer screen
:)  It also tells us where Sidney Jr. High is (you'll have to fill in the
city :)

Followups are directed to comp.sys.apple2, since this really doesn't belong
in comp.sys.apple2.gno.
