I once had them all all stored on my harddrive , but no longer. I'm going to scour the usenet for the original postings .. how many were there ?

I had already begun archiving the episodes of Red Baron when Ulrich Schreglmann replied to a mail I sent him. Turns out .. they are still online - They just moved to : http://www.ulrichschreglmann.homepage.t-online.de/redbaron/ ENJOY! ( I'm going to mirror them all the same )

This problem came to my attention because of the impending deletion of "ASCII comic" article on Wikipedia and desperate searching for sources which mention various ASCII comics. I found one article in Polish magazine, written by bug and that's all. Basically, if someone knows some source (printed or web-based, no Usenet allowed) which mentions various ASCII comics and how great they are, you can participiate in this discussion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/ASCII_comic Long-standing Wikipedia account is highly desirable for your vote to be counted. -- |Don't believe this - you're not worthless ,gr---------.ru |It's us against millions and we can't take them all... | ue il | |But we can take them on! | @ma | | (A Wilhelm Scream - The Rip) |______________|

Usenet has been the cornerstone of ASCII art for ages and since it is, mostly, a text only medium it is one of the last places that a fair amount of ASCII art is used. > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/ASCII_comic Will read that when I get a chance. -- =()==()==()==()==()- http://fauxascii.com \ \ \ \ \ \ ASCII artist :F_P:-O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
