Why? It is about ascii art... (and the other groups on that subject all
consist of 99% garbage anyway...) What could be argued here is that it

be one of them myself but I don't go around swearing at those who are.

It is on-topic for this newsgroup and hopefully made _this_ post a
little bit _less_ offensive to the majority of readers of alt.ascii-art.
Have a nice day and try to understand that even though not everybody is
a unix user they deserve to live and breathe too. (and spend your
aggressive energy on the real spam instead, such as "cum and see the
biggest sex site on the net" or "$$$ get very very RICH today!!!
$$$"...)
