There are always better things one can spend their time on... of course, since this list is a pre-selected roster of geeks, wasting a few minutes bantering about ascii-art is the normal-person equivalent of discussing the latest football game. :-) On Wed, Jul 13, 2011 at 20:41, Robert Shinka wrot

OK, I'm not particularly attached to it. I see why ">" has to be the final character. The real Fish prompt is incorporated into the logo, though it's not the whole logo. On Wed, Jul 13, 2011 at 10:47 AM, David Frascone wrote: > I don't see a fish there. I see a comic strip's attempt at profan
