Intermittently yours,
Posted on January 17, 2008
Lin Stone noticed my site name (and tag line), “Virtually yours,” and wrote a treatise on signing off entitled, “Intermittently Yours.”
These days signatures have deteriorated so badly even our crudest sales letters simply get signed with: “Sincerely yours.” “Sincerely yours” is so trite and worn out that it needs to be abolished.
For what it’s worth, when I’m not signing emails “Virtually yours,” I prefer either “Best regards,” or “Kind regards,.”
