[FLAME ON!!!!!!!]

	I took these billions of ascii encoded points and converted them
into a postscript form and previewed it successfully. I was VERY! DISAPPOINTED!
This ended up being a very low detail picture where most of the data is
used to make thick lines by drawing thousands of thin ones. I am sure
there is a better way of doing this but that is not the point here. I think
the poster of this should apologize for posting such a ridiculous amount of
data for such a simple picture. This is an abuse to the net, I have
never seen this much data posted for anything so trivial.

[FLAME OFF!!!!!!]

	Please don't ask me for the code I wrote, I threw it out. Netters I
would not waste your time using this data for anything other than system
bashing.

				Thank you and good night.
