You can't use the character that looks like underlining but is in the
same position as an apostrophe.

On some systems, your drawing will have =20 (or some other number) in
place of the offending character and end up looking like this:

        _____         ___
      /�     `\      / . \
      |  |  | |     / /  |
      |  .  | |     |  .'| 
____  |       |_____//' .`\
jro ~~| /.  . |    /./  '\ \~~---..--..---
  ..  /        \ ' | | .   |   ..    .  '.
     /  /  .' \ \  |'.   ..|   . _______
. ` /__...--..--_\ |   '.  | .  |CAUTION| .
   .       ,       |       | . .| FLOOD |'
   __________  /@ /�//' \\ `\. '|_PLAIN_|
. /\\_\_\_\_\\/   =20=20~~----..~ .   ||=20=20||  .
  \[=20N=20A=20S=20A=20=20]   .      .       .||  || .'
 ' =20(o)(o)(o)=20   .           .'   ""  ""
 .   =20 .=20  =20'.    .  '   ..   '     .    '

I am unable to e-mail this right now. We have no mail service for 24
hours now. The server is assuring us that no e-mail will be lost.
Hmmmm.....

NOTE: If you hit the reply button, add an "e" to the "freent";
its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
