Firstly, if we did that, your mail server would crash from the sheer volume, just as surely as if you asked for everyone to send you as many photos as possible, or as many Web pages as possible, or as many brussel sprouts as possible ... or whatever. Secondly, there is no point in sending you ASCII art. (You haven't given a reason, at any rate, so why should we bother?) If you want to see lots of ASCII art, subscribe to alt.ascii-art. If you want ASCII art on a specific topic, then post a message to alt.ascii-art describing exactly what you're looking for. Hope this helps ... -- .._o Matthew Thomas (mpt26 @ student . canterbury . ac . nz) ..://\/ http://cantua.canterbury.ac.nz/~mpt26/ (Site for sore eyes) ..:_/\ ASCII ART FAQ: http://cantua.canterbury.ac.nz/~mpt26/art/ascii/ ..:/ Linux.
