Then Normand came along and diddled it into this:

Elsewhere in the world, Daniel, at the same time, diddled this one:

Tina was sent a copy of Daniel's version and she diddled it into:

Seeing the diddle that Normand posted, she liked heart in Normand's version
and combined it resulting in:
.;'"";. .;'"';.

Collaborative effort by Tina L. Hesman, Daniel C. Au, and Normand Vielleux
Bryant, seeing this on the newsgroup, wrote that he just _had_ to contribute
to it, rounding the edges and eliminated the "trapazoidal" nest.

Daniel, seeing Bryant's version posted, took a look at the nest and thought
that it looked like the bottom of a basket and so he completed the picture:
,,,,,,,,,
,,,|||;;''''';;||,,,
,|||'''' ''''|||,
,||' `||,
,||' `||,

\\/\/\\\/\/\//\\/\/\/\\/\/\/
\///\\/\/\\/\/\\\/\/\\/\/
\\/\/\//\//\/\///\/
"~^"`'~"~^"~^~
However, the basket being a bit plain, he decided to tie a bow around the
handle to top it off.

And that's how there got to be two lovebirds in a basket! ;)
