Goodbye signature

Some years ago I started to systematically skip "Hello"s and "Regards"s in mails. Most of my mails are written to just say something and courtesy formulas like those add nothing but length. There are times where you feel you need to use them, but nowadays for me those are just a few.

I still use my signature in most of my mails:

  -- fxn

and I am getting tired of that. My name goes already in the From header, and since the mail is so direct that signature sometimes may look even assertive. It brings no information, it is inertia from previous standards. So I think I'll systematically cut that one as well.
