	I thought no one would ever ask. 

	For me it is a lack of annoyance. I appreciate them. What does
annoy me to no end is exactly the same sig words over and over
and over. And the more clever the faster the annoyance increases. 

	From the BBS days, one of the main selling points of the offline
readers was rotating sigs. 

	The Vcard is a different solution by encapsulating all the sig
words, read them if you wish and only if you wish. 

	There have always been problems of backwards campatibility of
new ideas with old.
