Mostly the members of the Ascii Art Webring (at least the : ones still reading this drivel of a newsgroup; it doesn't appear : that you post to it). Right, I suspect there may be others like me that do not want to post good ASCII that children would like to see, in with all the drivel. There are plenty of newsgroups that could be used for other than material suitable for underage viewers, so that this newsgroup would not be blocked from computers in all the schools. I would like to help, but I don't do windows. :-) Now, if anybody would want to start a newsgroup for DOS ANSI color and animated art, using a different ESCAPE sequence that would be compatible with Usenet and the charter of the newsgroup, that would be very interesting. Regards to all participants here, don't let me spoil your fun, but you should be aware you are causing problems in all the schools in the whole world, and keeping many people of all ages from having fun.
