I am pleased to see that you learn quickly.  Would that all were as
forward-looking and insightful as Citizen Casso.  This preposterous
ASCII art faction forgets that all shall browse through the eyes of
the Internet Exploder, and shall crave none but the succulent media
provided by such bulletproof multimedia technology as DirectX.  And
as for these blasphemous heretics who resist the overwhelming flood
of advancement with their subhuman, primitive "art," they shall not
last long under the tide of proprietary formats which shall control
all knowledge and all power.

Resistance is futile!  You will be assimilated!
