That is fair enough. I have just made that revision. Roger Loran Bailey"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, & the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people."

I can ignore most tags since they are usually formatted to follow thesenders name and separated by a line or two. It is tough on me to avoid the vitriol since it appears to be part of the body of the message. I think taglines should be after the senders name and with a blank line between the senders name and the tagline. It is considered good netiquette. I am all for freedom of expression, but I would rather read his messages and ignore the politics. Thanks!
