I appreciate signed mails on this list (and any other lists). Most problems these days on the internet are, in my opinion, related to

show so by signing your posts.

OK. I stand behind this post. But other than amusing myself, does it
really make any difference?

To me it does some. Knowing that we know that you are really Jean-David Beyer and that it probably is not a made up name, makes it far more likely that you'll consider your words before posting them online and that it is also less likely that you'd be trolling just for the fun of it.

Please note that I am in any way suggesting you'd be trolling otherwise, but a properly signed post for which a trust path from my key to yours exists does make a difference to me. A small one perhaps and you might not find it worth signing your posts for my convenience / peace of mind, but if you do sign it, I do appreciate it :-)
