So... It's ok to be sanctimonious and patronise people but not ok to call people on it?
Hmmm...
It was an OT thread about godwin's law. I was trying to have a laugh when graham took exception to what i said about MPs. I called him on his holier than thou attitude and now a bunch of you have your knickers in a twist.
Still, graham... What more could i expect from someone who describes the wholesale theft of millions of pounds of taxpayers money as "opportunist expenses claims"? Are you sure you're not related to an MP? :-)
It was all tongue in cheek (hence the smilies) but if the result was making the politically correct brigade have a fit of the vapours, it was well worth it :-)

P.S. Enjoy my .sig. I can't believe the fuss you lot made about somebody's sig... Those involved (you know who you are!) need to get out more and probably get laid :-)

No, but unfortunately like the boilerplate crud many corporates send
out it's either just a default and as such not intentional, or not
easily removable by the user.
That said I saw one just today which just said "Send using Ubuntu
Linux" which I actually quite liked :)
Maybe I'm just biased against closed platforms like iphone and blackberry.
Cheers,
Al.
