The reason I ask is that someone (a friend of mine) has decided to call me a
womble. I am still trying to figure out why, but in the mean time I want to
send him a Womble pic and someone suggested that I ask in here for one, cos
we both think ascii pics look better and are more email friendly (especially
in a building where a good percentage use linux and dont like HTML emails.
