All them damn repetitive sig lines offend me, even my own.  

What say we make it a rule - change sigs every week, kinda like a PAW,
no more than 55 characters for the sig subject,  plus one attribution
line and one name line, and of course the required "--" and carriage
return that makes the sig identifiable as a sig and not a continuation
of the text. 

Anyone using the same sig two weeks in a row has to apologize.
Profusely. And repetitively. Over and Over.

Frits,

I understand that list decorum is something to be attentive to.
Hence this is, in my opinion, a suitable point relating to 
the framework of discussions.

Are my current sig choices unacceptable as well? (see below)
Where does one draw the line?  If it the simple principle
of civility, then how was that broached by the earlier content?

These are openly "evangelical" Christian items.
That basis may offend some.  But they'll get over it.

I'm philosophically opposed to the principles behind 
Hermann Hesse quote yet I don't demean the poster.
I got over it.

Rubbish.   Most of the list is quite capable of ignoring
the matter.  It's just the two of you who are incapable of
doing anything other than conducting a childish squabble,
in public, in a totally inappropriate forum.

You're only arguing because you disagree on a political issue.
It's got nothing to do with photography.  Take it outside.

I disagree, Lasse. Collin has been using that sig line for quite a while. 
Everybody has seen it by now. You're the only one who has chosen to respond by 
attacking him personally. Apparently everyone else who doesn't agree with him 
is content to ignore it. That's usual for sig lines.

A "list issue" response would be something like "I don't think members should 
put political opinions in sig lines. This one offends me, and others may have 
problems with it too."

What you actually did was cuss him out directly and send your personal attack 
to the list. See the difference?
