Josh, If you are too much of a coward to do this on your own account, 
please don't use the Visions account to post things. Plan file has nothing 
to do with sig files because the problem with large sig files is they 
waste space on the net, a plan file only takes up space on the 
individual's account. And as for the spelling, I have no idea how to use 
the vax's spelling checker or if it really has one. As to anyone else 
reading this, I think that warlording a person's plan file is a cheep 
shot, espcialy when you use a group acount, so you can do it anonamously. 
If you agree please send hate mail to JOSHM@YANG.Earlham.edu.

I think the ASCII thing on the right deserves a special mention, makes up
for the lack of a BUAF, stars, .sig virus etc all by its self.


Just what is it ? , an ear?, a bass clef?, an opened out paper-clip ?, a fish
talking underwater? any ideas??
