http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_Army_Knife#Victorinox_and_Wenger:

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
