Regardless, my signature block from my personal e-mail account has this quote: "Who is more irrational? A man who believes in a God he doesn't see, or a man who's offended by a God he doesn't believe in?" - Brad Stine We're talking about a signature block, not the content of the message. It's not like he replied to a query about pg_dumpall by saying "Acts 10:31 - 'Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy data.'" If you feel it's inappropriate, I would think that the appropriate channel for complaint would be the company itself, not this list of its users. And, to forsake this avenue of advice because of a religious quote in a signature block would be, IMO, a foolish choice. -- Daniel J.
