Would you participate in a contest if you thought, from the very start, that you did not even have a slim chance of winning? The one bad thing about contests like that is that they make ONE winner and MANY, MANY losers! It would be better if we could find a way to flip that around somehow... -- Normand Veilleux As a "long term" contributing artist to nveilleu@emr1.emr.ca alt.ascii-art, I hereby declare that ---------------------------- rec.arts.ascii (MODERATED) has my support.
