... quite strange that it _STILL_ doesn't show up at your site, imho.

... assuming you also read alt.ascii-art or alt.binaries.pictures.ascii this 
message probably reaches you.  *:-)**

... yes, i'm alive. I moved to rec.arts.ascii already since it shows up here 
at my site just fine. I get the news from the computer center at the Technical 
University of Aachen (German Name is: "Rheinisch Westfaelische Technische 
Hochschule Aachen (Rechenzentrum)" - just in case you're interested). I'm 
supervisor here at my site but not in the computer center where the nntp-host 
is located. I think i'll give you the adress of my nntp-host: 137.226.112.21  
(urmel.informatik.rwth-aachen.de). Give it a try. It is possible that you are 
not allowed to post because posting is limited to some special domains. But 
you should be able to read at least.

... posting this to alt.ascii-art, alt.binaries.pictures.ascii and 
rec.arts.ascii should make this visible 4 u to at least two of these groups.

... don't wanna offend you but it rather looks like a birthday cake (just 
kidding :))))))))))) It looks just fine.

Hope that helps. If it doesn't then send me a mail and i'll give you the 
adress of the person who is in charge of all the computer activities here at 
the university.

Yours,
