- No, no, no. The first line up there is a sign-off. It's inside the
- body of the post which is, of course, a mortal sin. The next line is
- a postscript. I do those a lot (because I usually can't figure out
- an elegant way to fit the line into the main post), which is why I
- do an in-post sign-off. Then comes the sigdash and then the slim,
- trim one-line .sig.
-
- So you have a problem with hyphens below the sign-off, do you?

- checked, Em and En dashes weren't in the convenient part of ASCII)
