This is about the best I could do:

 .-------------,
 | dn pua siyL |
 `-------------'

Perhaps someone could improve on it for me? It's not easy writing stuff in 
ascii umop apisdn.

Using your idea, here's a mirror image:
    ______________
   |              |
   |.LY!z cu9 nd  |
   |______________| 

And if you use some more Capital letters, it's a little closer to 
what Bruce Thompson actually asked for?

Whee!! This ascii art thing is sort of like a disease. It's taking

jot...@laraby.tiac.netd  drew:

>> .-------------,
>> | dn pua siyL |
>> `-------------'

then using that idea and Capital letters, I drew:

>   _______________
>   |              |
>   | dA PN3 SIH.L |
>   |______________|
>

And now I've just thought of this possibility. Why not change the words but 
give the same sense.

No! No! No! I didn't draw that!  Admiral Jota <jot...@laraby.tiac.net> drew it. 
(I'd like to take credit for it though.) And now I'm very afraid. You owe me 
bigtime payback for what I did to "Twister".

Don't forget to vote in the first MMP ( Mixed Member Proportional )
system election in New Zealand on 12 October 1996.

You get two votes, one for your electorate Member of Parliament and
one for the Political Party of your choice.

Preservation of the Public Health Services seems to be the number one 
priority.
