I know this has probably been posted many times before, but I would
appreciate it if someone would send me an ascii rose.  Thanks.

	Actually there is one animated rose, Colin.  :)  (Though it does
appear people are looking for "plain" roses and posting to the wrong
newsgroup).  In any case, it's attached, uudecoded and gzipped (and I
hope my newsreader does not base64-encode this).  One can probably just
uudecode this message and then zcat directly, and if that doesn't work Kai
Voelcker explains the procedure quite well in his posts...

You need a minimum of free 330k RAM to decompress a .z or .Z file
and some of us still use PC/XT machines or even Commodore 64s.

Don't know anyone on the Net using a Sinclair 80 though.

Wasn't it Bill Gates who said 64k RAM is enough for anybody ?
That must have been before Unix !  :-)

	Someone pointed out I named the animation file wrong
in the last post (rose.vt.gz should've been rose.gz.vt)...
it will still work by toying with the filename, but I figured
I should post it again [sorry for the consequent waste of
bandwidth].

	This one is compressed (zipped) and uuencoded...how
to retrieve them is discussed quite eloquently (better than
I can, anyway) elsewhere in this newsgroup.
