For which he's gotten lightly toasted, since Bob's email address is already
incorporated in the sig.  But I kind of wonder if maybe Todd had something
else in mind:

       \ ,.  ',        ,    .         \/ ,".). ',     \/. ',

Even if he didn't have it in mind, it's an interesting effect.

   Yes, that's what he had in mind.  For those who don't see, Catalyst 
had put 'Scarecrow' in the flames.  Here's how the S and C look:
