My understanding of the term "ObASCII" is that it is a made up
compound word derived from "Obligation" and "ASCII". The purpose of
this newsgroup is ASCII art, ergo you are obliged to post ASCII. That
and you might get flamed by one of the more militant FAC commandos for
violating a alt.ascii-art precept.

ObASCII:

  <::::''''-.
      )      '.
  <::::        """"""""""""""""""'''''''''''-.
      )                                      :
  <::::     .-'""""""""""""""""""''''''''''''
       '''''
 SPORK! (Say it Loud!)
