We are not put on this earth to judge... people know what they like and
what they don't like- that is their opinion and they are entitled to it. 
Opinions are neither right nor wrong.  As adults, we should respect that.

This is *not* harassment.  If you think it is, you are very naive for this
world.
This newsgroup is an open forum- You cannot dictate what people write nor
can you dictate who can write.    I responded to this post :

>not produce anything themselves, except for unqualified comments.

I disagree with its content- I would've responded to this had anyone else
posted it.  Imagine how dull this newsgroup would be without the ASCII art
collectors, requestors, and commentators...   All people  have just as
much right to USENET.    As for "unqualified comments"-  just _who_ is the
expert at ASCII art?   Who is qualified???

I'm guessing that you may be bombarded with email by those people who
collect the ASCII art.... And they feel the same way as I do.
