I'd like to add my perhaps more tempered agreement on this one.  I don't
know if societal norms need to be invoked, but advertising in a signature
has always kind of irked me, especially when it's not in any way related to
the list.  If somebody were looking for linux sysadmins or linux work a line
or two would seem appropriate, but a paragraph advertising nutritional
pseudoscience referral-based sales is a bit much.
