Mr. P. Casso has posted a series of deliberate distortions and
misrpresentatons of the text and title of "The Ascii Art FAQ Ten
Commandments FAQ" to this newsgroup alt.ascii-art.

Mr. Casso has also miscredited the original author Joris Bellenger
(b'ger) and replaced Mr. Bellenger's name with my initals "cfbd".

To reduce any confusion, especially in new or inexperienced readers
of alt.ascii-art newsgroup, about these deliberate FAQ distortions
by Mr. Casso the correct version and title of the FAQ is given below:
