ASCII artist's addresses...aardvark.. and snow

Hi all..

I've been contacted by a woman who is writing
an academic (!) book about the Internet and one
of her sections is about ASCII art.  She has been
trying to get current email addresses (or real
addresses) for Susie Oviatt and Normand Veilleux.
Neither have been on the 'net for a while.  I heard
from Normand 1+ year ago when he was switching
jobs and losing 'net access.  I'm unable to help her.
All she wants is to get permission to use some of
their ASCII artwork in her book.   If anyone knows
the whereabouts of these two, would you let me know.
Or let the author (B Danet) of this book know.
She's at:  Xms...@mscc.huji.ac.il
(remove the X at the start of her email address)

Thanks!

I thought you said you lived in a *warm* place!?! *I'm* the one who
lives way too close to the north pole! *I* should have the first snow,
not you or llizard! *grrrrr*

I don't mind the +10-15 we're having here in .fi, but I DO mind the
rain that always comes at autumn.. :-(

Yes, the rain sucks. I'm hoping for a few days with no rain while the
temperature goes from +10 to -10, *then* some snow. Of course, that
won't happen and I'll have to fight with frozen bike lock and frozen
roads...   :-(


Here's what happened two years ago during this dangerous time:

But there was snow about 100km north of here (about an hour's highway
drive away). Here, in the balmy south (still north of Joan, I think) it
is lovely. The trees are JUST changing colour and the air is the perfect
temperature for taking long bike rides.

Sorry, Joan, I have no addresses for Susie Oviatt and Normand Veilleux

its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

You're welcome to the snow Veronica!
The blast of cold was unusual this early.
It has since warmed up.. we have sun
and changing leaves just like llizard.
I'm just a few miles south of Lake Erie...
it's supposed to be fall here.. not winter!
