Where is Mona Lisa? Meriday?

Where is Mona Lisa? Meriday?

alt.ascii-art · 4 messages · 9 Jun 1994 - 14 Jun 1994
I tried looking in two ASCII archives, but couldn't find the following.

Where can I find the ASCII gray scale picture of the Mona Lisa done
using Rob Harley's _ASC_ conversion program?

Where can I find the 3 page long ASCII nude portrait called Meriday done
by Mike Jittlov?

   I don't know if this is the exact one, but it's one of the better Mona 
Lisa conversions I have in my collection.  Stand back a meter or more for 
best viewing results.

Depending on your font, it might look better if you replace # with %
or 8 or somefink.

Uhhh, like "finger mbk...@remarque.berkeley.edu" or something, dude.
And whenever you mention it you have to say "copyright 1992,1993,1994
by Mike Jittlov" or you will have 57 anal-retentive groupies come over
from alt.fan.mike-jittlov and flame you.  Copyright on the net?
Bwa-ha-ha!  ROTFLMAO...
