Something a little different - one of our favorite acronyms has been
immortalized as asteroid #3568 ASCII, as announced in the September
issue of Sky & Telescope.  This is a bit unusual as asteroids are
normally named after people or places, both real and fictional.  Who
knows, after almost 4000 discoveries maybe they're running out of names.
