[][ hi ... i liked it

i also like your wavy lines altho' they mess-up in some font-types
especially Dos/OEM-Terminal and Topaz-New2 ... possibly others too

this little segment has the chars:

>(�`�.��.���

62,40,175,96,183,46,184,184,46,183,180,175,

some purists in this group frown upon any char above 127 decimal
since these chars require an 8-bit transport and not all gateways
permit or may strip any bits above 7-bit which will result in an
odd appearance of your work for them

try using some of the chars in the following wiggly scribbles to
remake your wavy lines
_      _      _      _      _      _      _      _

the above scribble is a form of SWOLF ... a handle i once
used on a CB-rig
swolf is a corruption of shieldwolf which is an alias i use
from time to time
i often use it in place of the word TEST

I see.
Well, it looks a lot better than just "Test".

... its just scribble ... better than having an all-text message ...
sometimes i get ideas for things so i try them out .. see .. scribble
:)

BTW the sig divider is 'sposed to be:  dash dash space
so that my mailer/newsreader can auto-strip it
... the barb-wire looks cool anyway

Changed it, although this is the first time i ever had any complaints
about it. And i have this sig (including the dashes) for about 2 years
now...

>... the barb-wire looks cool anyway
