I don't know of a _consensus_, but someone with a large .sig is going to
have everyone they send to ticked off at them all the time...  ;-}  

Your .sig violates Blaine's rule, and mine does as well. I suggest one as
long as it needs to be, and no more. If anything, I find more of a problem
with people replying to e-mail and including all the previous headers and
_other people's_ sigs than one person's individual one...
