Me neither. IMHO, having or not having a sig is a very personal choice, not
a mandate by any stretch of the imagination. Probably only about half* of
all the people on the net even use sigs.
Personally, I don't use a sig because I find it much easier to read and
digest people's posts quickly when they don't use sigs. While it's not
really any of my business whether JW uses a sig, I'm perfectly happy that
he doesn't.

It seems decorative, and the value is mostly to the appender being able to make: (...) political statements or statements about their belief systems (...) more information (...)
