This is Dionysos, son of Zeus, greek god of wine.
Jolly fellow if you ask me.
He was called Bacchus by the romans.
I guess they drank wine too.   :)

Thanks.

   I had this problem in the past. In my case I think it was due to a
non-standard character getting into a file I uploaded and posted with a
Unix newsreader or Unix mail program. I use Microsoft Word which uses
smart quotes. A single smart quote in a text file I posted would cause
problems similar to the problems you had. Even standard carriage returns
were corrupted by being in a file with a smart quote and became =20. The
problem went away when I switched from smart quotes to standard straight
quotes in my word processor. There are also text editors that will strip
non-standard characters from a file. Please let me know if something like
this might be the problem.
   By the way, you create excellent ascii art!!! Thanks for posting it.
