     According to this April 15, 1994 posting of Craig E. Smith that was
reposted on May 11, 1994 by Brandon Wong with its credits intact... (THANK
YOU, BRANDON!) the ASCII artist of the Pinky and the Brain picture is
credited as being one, "Sean Gugler".  (Is it really that hard to preserve
the artist's name along with the picture?)
