ObAscii?
Hi everyone.

While I am not a very active (smile) person on this group, I do read every 
thing in it.  I also read the alt.hackers newgroup where they have an ObHack
required every post.  In other words: if you post something, it has to have
a little or large hack at the end.  After seeing the amount of text debates
on this group (e.g. the moderator discussion), I wondered if anybody agrees
that it might be a good idea to put an ObAscii requirement on every post.  It
would allow people who want to debate to debate, and those who want to see more
art to see more art.  BTW, Ob stands for obligatory.

Bye!

(I didn't say that the ascii necassarily (sp?) had to be by you, some people 
aren't that talented.  Like me. :-)
