> Don't think so. That's no quote at all -- a practice which is significantly different from putting a quote between your name.

This is probably carrying this particular tangent way too far but...this isn't what I meant.

Your quote was -5 letters, since it removed the "tephe" in sTEPHEn. My quote was -9 letters, since it removed ALL NINE letters in "anonymous". Since -9If we're going by those rules, then Sam had it way back with the original post: no quote, no name at the end.

Based on my argument, since "Anonymous" is a significantly longer name than "Sam", mine is still shorter than that origional post (either judging by letters or ASCII values, it doesn't matter). But if anyone has a longer name than mine, then they could automatically have a shorter quote by not signing :-Þ!

>But obviously that's silly...

No kidding. But if I was in the mood to be serious, I'd be studying right now :-Þ.
