I promise I'm not in a grumpy mood today, but Al's post reminded me of another thing I'm curious about.

Why do people leave the default signature on their wireless devices? Do they believe I really care that they are using a Blackberry, or an Android, or an iPhone or whatever? Do they get a discount from their provider by sending out this advertisement with every message sent? Or is it that they just can't be bothered by changing it?

Not directed at anyone in particular. I just don't understand the desire to provide free advertising for companies I have no involvement with.

To me, that is "Silly"!
