No, Peter, YOU'RE wrong; by quoting those people, you've made
those texts a PART of your message.
The solution you need isn't to break the .sig, but to place the

Because you're wrong ;-)
As stated above, by quoting, you make the quotes a part of *your

It's the same in ANY correspondence. The rules of style and
format do not change with the medium.
