Isn't there some ASCII art for Chanuka (which starts Dec 23rd)?

Chanuka, (spelled chanookie to me) is the proper spelling of Hanuka, from what I've heard. Hence the people sending the Manureas, and the witches' stars without the circles. -- _,._ ,' ,`-. |. / |\ `. \ \ ( ,-,-` ). `-._ __ \ \ \|\,' `\ /' `\ \ \ ` |, , / \ \ \ \ \ `,_/`, /\,`-.__/`. \ \ | ` / / `-._ \\\ `-/' / `-. \\`/ _______,-/_ /' \ ---'`| |` ),' `---. , | \..-`--..___|_,/ / / | |`,-,...,/ ,' \ | |_| / ,' __ r-'', |___|/ |, / __ /-'' `'`) | _,-' ||__\ /,-' / _,.--| ( .-' ) `(_ / _,.-' ,-' _,/ `-------' `--'' `'''

The same is true of Menorah, the Jewish candelabrah. Both the five- and the six- pointed star were found on Solomon's temple, but so were pomegranites (sp?) and other doo-dads. Now, however, confusing them would probably offend most jews and witches. --zeb (who is both).

I hope my signature for the coming fortnight will do.
Besides, no stars, no candlesticks at all -- nothing to
argue about, yet, still Chanookka-related.
B.T.W. What a remarcable coincidence!
It happens exactly on the occasion of
the Japaneese emperor birthday!!!
May be it is some meaningful omen?
