      Yes. It was funny then!

      The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick

                            E to the x is walking down the street when a crowd of functions comes running by. “Run for your life,” they say. “The differential operator is coming!” Unperturbed, e to the x continues walking. Another crowd of functions passes by with the same warning. “The differential operator is coming!” “Can’t hurt me,” thought e to the x, “I am my own derivative.” Then, from around the corner comes the differential operator. Stomp, stomp, stomp. “Why aren’t you running like the others?” asked the differential operator. “You can’t hurt me, I'm e to the X!” “Ah,” said the differential operator, “but I am the derivative with respect to y!” This isn't the only calculus joke I know, but the others are only debatably KSS (does she know calculus?).

                                People thought that "Knock Three Times" was music, back in 1971. They were wrong, too.
