also, if everyone put the type of van they have. and where they live
in some sort of standardized sig template, we could do on-the-fly
statistics.
when whomever is doing the stats grabs the email, a little perl script
could parse the email and grab the relevant information, and insert it
into a kd-tree with the following elements: year, model, city, state;
where in this example, year=84, model=GL, city=Baltimore, state=MD.

/******************************
 * Baltimore, MD
 * 1984 Vanagon GL
 ******************************/

Just a thought~ (and this case would have to be taken care of... two
valid (not in a quoted text block) signatures in one e-mail ~ maybe
grab the last valid found)
