This is a test of my automatic line wrapper.  What you are seeing now is merely
filler text, and should be summarily ignored.

Had this been an actual alt.ascii-art post, you would've seen something like
this:

As long as you're here, five lines is quite OK, but you only need to use
it once per post... (and to make it perfect there should be a space
after the hyphens in the sig separator)

like this --.
