   A while back, Rich Barrette wrote to me: "I am writing a FAQ for a 3DO 
game called GEX and would really like an awesome ASCII art header to go 
with it."

   I suggested that he post a request, and he did, but he received no 
response.  So he wrote back saying, "I read your faq and grabbed gifscii.  I 
then came up with this:"

   Only one of my sigs has been made into a Figlet font (well actually 
it's three Figlet fonts):

   I made it for Halloween last year, and didn't think anything of it.  
It was just another sig to bang out.  But a lot of folks went crazy over 
it and it ended up being Figletized.

   In the past, we have had discussions about which of my sigs should be 
Figletized.  Here are some popular ones:

     _mm_   _am,   _am,   _g_ag,  _am,   _am,  _g_ag,  _am,   .g,   g,   g,
