Is Pete saying that the following is an insult??? --------------------------begin quote Then we have seen the emergence of Pete Casso with his creation of a new subgenre of "Stein Characters", second only to the well-known "Silly Cows" genre in Ascii Art, and by far outstripping the other known genres of Sheep; Owls; Koala Bears, and Luke the Spook. The two basic characters were Birdstein and Frogstein... _==_ ( "> oo.

It claims that his Steins have reached the massive popularity that he imagined they would. It's a shame that I find Pete's cartoons to be so entirely humourless because I think the drawings are quite charming. NOTE: I do not pick up my mail from the idirect address that you see. If you are e-mailing me and hit the reply button, add an "e" to "freent"; its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers. -- llizard aka ejm cq547@freene+.+oron+o.on.ca __ ASCII-ar+, ASCII & gif anima+ions \<\ www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/9334/ < \ ha ^^<_ / ha No thanks, don't add me to the dubious ejm _\/ ^%--- ha gallery.
