Huh? Maybe cuz it's Friday, but I'm not sure what you mean...Our sig lines? _________________ I want to put out the fires of Hell, and burn down the rewards of Paradise. They block the way to God. I do not want to worship from fear of punishment or for the promise of reward, but simply for the love of God. - Rabia |

The GregEllis quote is good, although its basically saying he is a Post Carbon reject. Reminds me of that scene in Stripes when Murray talks about being American because 'we were kicked out of every decent country in the world'.
But, are you asking how the quote should be chosen, if there should be one, how often should it change etc ? |

| It's good, I like how you click on the name and it takes you to the thread where it was said. Can you track how many clicks a quote gets ? Then we can see what piques peoples interest. How to pick the quote I don't know. Is there a way to do it automatically ? |

I like these ones

"If you can get them to ask the wrong questions, then the answers don't matter."
Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.~Theodore Roosevelt

but I can't vouch for their authenticity...quotes of forums tend to be altered and edited slightly as they move around the net. _________________ We stand here, as the light of other days surrounds us.
