Or, how about if I move the original ones further into the foreground
and have them walking on a ridge and others down closer to the sphinx...

                              /\.
        /\.    _-_           /:_\/.
ejm98  /:_\/ /'. .'\ ___    /__:_\/ .
            /(|`/ !)\  /:__/__:___\/./
           |  \ = /  |/ / /\:___:__\/
            `  ---  ./ / / /\
           /--- -----\/ / / / ,,
          /---  ----- `/ / /    , ,,
        _/--- __ _/  ' `/ /
      /     /XXX/     ! `/
     |_|_|_|XXX|_|_|_'|_/
                 ,,,       
                     ,,, ,

                    / / / |                          / / / |

And because one would still have to try to explain what all those commas
were, here it is without the ones close to the sphinx.

                              /\.

its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
