I should add that I don't have a problem with people making whatever image is OK with Neal. "Free Speech" does not apply, this is a private setting.

In fact, it is a good indicator of who we are talking to. Someone who goes to the trouble of making a sig like that is not gonna be on my short list of people to hang out with (or probably the long one, either). Heck, I've never gone to the trouble of making ANY sig on any forum since there have been forums. Or a sig on usenet groups, back in the day Heck, the assigned avatar here is the only forum avatar I have, I don't do that, either.
