Why do you reply to the canceled posting?

Your logic is flawed. “normally” is a weasel word. Much like with other
programming languages, there are applications of PHP that have nothing to do
with the client-server architecture. Apparently you do not know them. Rest
assured that your numbers are from *thin air*. OTOH, I did not expect a
reasonable, well-founded argument to begin with “Clearly”, as pointed out in
the posting that superseded the one you replied to.

There is no standard about it; there is a recommendation (RFC 1855). Like
several other people on Usenet, I choose to interpret it differently, and to
write my signature above the signature delimiter when I have something else
in my (randomly chosen) .sig that exceeds the recommended limit of four
lines.

So you need your newsreader to think for you?

bad branches can sometimes cause the whole tree to collapse.
