    Nothing is impossible. By the way, you'll lose your signature altogether if that hairy back is still there the next time I log on.

    Actually, a computer scientist would probably tell you straight away that that is impossible, but you could prevent a lot of abuse quite easily in that way. We tend not to punish newbies for the misdeeds of some spammers though.
