And to think that I foolishly thought the three line llizard was as
small as could be done!

NOTE: If you hit the reply button, add an "e" to the "freent";
its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

Have you ever seen Gary Larson's "The FarSide"?

Slightly altering your sig looks like one of his cartoons with a caption
something like "Doggie information superhighway"

I can't say I have.  I must admit to a slight cheek in that the
original small dog is not by me and I can't remember the credit:
I just amde it into a sig by replicating and varying it. You 
could have a elephant superhighway with d.n.maltz's elephants, too...

A lot of micro-animals could be made into repeating borders like this.
