That's a good point.

It is essentially impossible to make a rule that will pick-up random text 
that won't pickup PGP signatures, since PGP signatures are the most 
randome thing a computer can generate.

Hmm... perhaps it'd be best to test for [bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz] (lowercase 
consonants) and start out with a count of 7.  At least that is less 
likely to pickup PGP signatures and is small, and it won't pick-up things 
like http:...

I'm not happy with it though.  I'll give it some thought
