I guess Magnus didn't really want to mail this to the ding mailing
list, but since he did, I might as well answer here. (For the
non-Norwegian-speaking people out there -- you can tell that that was
a question by the way the sentence is cleverly ended with a question
mark.)
The FAQ (but less frequently answered question) is -- "What *is*
that?". It's a line from a poem by Janet Frame, from the book _Living
in the Maniototo_. The poem deals with how some people seem to live
and love and stuff, and other people use, uh, things (like pets) to
avoid living. As antidotes; like milk.
It's my way of subliminally bumming out millions of people -- they
don't know why they get depressed, but they do anyway. A psychic
study recently finished shows that 78% of the people who read
something I've written feel "irritable", "sad" or "suicidal". I
attribute that to the signature, of course.

So I'm the only one who thought he had just found a disclaimer on a
product of some kind, and was using it for a .sig?

Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be
changed regularly and for the same reason.

I thought Lars was cat people and was showing his affection, just I
couldn't understand what it actually meant :-)
Are you cat people, Lars?

Hmm... I'd love to see the gnus logo on a carton of milk...

I do think that Lars has scheduled underwear first. Seems like a
continual downgrade. I like it.
Here in the US, we had a trend for a while of putting lost children
advertisements on milk cartons... "Have you seen this child?
Call..."
We could do "Have you seen this Newsreader? Visit
http://www.gnus.org". I can just picture Lars' effort into
researching prices for shipping over seas of refrigerated,
heavily-custom-controlled food substances....

Me too. When I moved away from my parents', my cat stayed with them,
'cause I'm away from home too much (most days I'm only home for
sleeping). Then, a few months ago, she passed away. Reached the
biblical age of 21!
We all miss being dominated by our home tigress, for sure!
