This is the best fix I can come up with:
                                             _     _
                                            (^)___(^)
                                            {  _  _ }
                                            |  *  * |
    __              ___...___            ===`.= x =,===
  ,` XX=     .---```        ""''---___   ___,'`_^_,'
  | |       /                         """  \'''''"|
   ` `--```                         """"   |''''"/
    `----``,-,,,_ _              """"      /'''""/
                |'|'|,'---,,,'''',,,,,--''|'|'|,',
                `-_`-_`-_                   `-_`-_`_

Amy, please consult this character chart
http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/9334/asciichart.htm#top
to see which characters you can use.

And here is a ferret by Ed Wisneiwski aka Targon I just came across:

                                       _,-/\^---,
               ;"~~~~~~~~";          _/;; ~~  <0 `---v
             ;" :::::   :: "\_     _/   ;;     ~ _../
           ;" ;;    ;;;       \___/::    ;;,'~~~~
         ;"  ;;;;.    ;;     ;;;    ::   ,/
        / ;;   ;;;______;;;;  ;;;    ::,/
       /;;V_;; _-~~~~~~~~~~;_  ;;;   ,/
      | :/ / ,/              \_  ~~)/
      |:| / /~~~=              \;; \~~=
      ;:;{::~~~~~~=              \__~~~=
   ;~~:;  ~~~~~~~~~               ~~~~~~
   \/~~                                      Targon



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