Case proven - for me (and I presume Mike), all the ones that are U's in mikes
were 
   \
   U
(But as one character)

All the Ns were

 ~
 N

and all the as were
 ^
 a

As mike said, it did look better that way for those who couldsee it.

did not see any of that till check with goggle the archives

 \
 U   seeing as  Y
 ~
 N   seeing as  Q

 ^
 a   seeing as  b

which gives it an entirely different effect

:  where ?

Here for a start - my newsreader is some unix thingy called 'tin', it changes
almost everything that isn't strict ASCII into the '?' question mark symbol,
which doesn't do much for the artwork.

was a first, but the characters that were extended was replaced with diff standard ascii
characters not a question mark ( strange ) also in a pattern that made you think it was drawn
that way ( strange too ) actually it turn out rather nice. shall we call it computer fluke art
;) for the extended characters that was replaced the( U` N~ a^ ) with standard ascii ( Y Q b )
in respective order. the Japanese characters usually will see with no problems till they are
copied an pasted then i do get the question mark. for sending encoding is Western European iso,
for viewing Western European  US-ASCII with the Japanese characters as a second language

still confused as why this happen ah but what heck :)

NOTE:     I did NOT draw the above picture(s) I have NO ascii art
