Open the file containing your sig in "edit" mode.

Insert hyphenhyphenspacecarriage return/enter as the first line of
the file.

(Re)Save the file.

Insert hyphenhyphenspaceLF/CR
"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost


If there had been an actual hyphenhyphenspaceLF/CR above,
all the text 'south' of it would not have been included.

This does cause some problem with top posters, who end their post
with that double dash. When you reply, all one sees is what they
