I would love to have some sort of heuristic in readnews that would make a guess at what portion of the tail of an article was the signature, and not show it to me. There would, of course, be some instances where it guessed wrong or where I really wanted to check the signature to see if it contained a useful mail address. But having it thrown away most of the time would be worth the extra work of reprinting the article whenever I really did want to see the last few lines. (Even at 19200 baud, they are annoying once I've seen the same one more than twice.)
