In response to a request by Bill Taylor-- here is the Hindu God, Ganesha:
God of Writing and Wisdom ...  (at least that's what it says in my
symbolism book!)  :D

-=[ Ganesha ]=-  8/98

> wonder if creating ASCII art is considered "writing"?  ;)

No, but it could possibly be considered as " Making unto thyself 
graven images which are in the likeness of things here on earth or 
in heaven above or in the waters under the earth."   *8-)
