Actually, I find this incredibly amusing.  :^)  I use netscape to view
News,
and it will produce one of those horrendous horizontal bars (which I
might
add, I despise - although the concept of a panoramic ascii is
interesting)
to display the message in whatever format it is sent (including, no
carriage
returns).  However, Pete, it appears that aol is throwing line feeds
into
your outgoing posts following the 74th character - so, what you sent to
try
to mark the columns has been pre-wrapped.

Oh well.  *I* thought it was funny.  :^)

Touche !  It _is_ absolutely hilarious because your own lines are 
wrapping at 71/72 columns.

The TIN newsreader also wraps lines at 76 columns which can be a 
real pain with Ascii art pictures because it makes them double-line
spaced like Eli Ganam's Very Own Cat.


                                /\_/\

                           ____/ o o \

                         /~____  =�= /
                                            Eli Ganam.
                        (______)__m_m)


The double spacing can also be caused by trailing blanks exceeding 
the line-wrap column setting.

Doesn't time pass quickly when you're having fun.  :-)
