First of all, I would like to thank Are Nodland for taking the time to
reply to my request for writing a few words text in various figlet fonts
for me. He was the only one who responded to my request, and I am greatly
indebted to him. Thanks Are! I really appreciate it!
Now, here is Here's some West Coast Swing ASCII-art I designed: The first
two have been slightly retouched, the rest are all new.
