Satire and Mega-Crossposted Ascii-Pix ScreenDump!!! And THIS TIME, I'm NOT going to stand meekly by as I did back in 1964-7 when I created the Happy Face. Yes, that's right!! I admit it, back when my fellow classmates were drawing WW2 Killroys, I made and drew the proto-typical pre-hippy happy smiley all over Marshall High School, Silverlake, Hollywood and UCLA, and while hitchhiking across America to Montreal's Expo 67!! Look it up, if you don't believe me!!! Cuz it's past the Statute of Limitations, and I can now admit this for The Record!! In the Name of NetHonor, I must request that all posters re-using my distinct artwork -- composed of 44 separate ascii characters and spaces, requiring extraordinary amounts of unique talent, modest Genius, and months of backbreaking hesitancy to carefully copy the cover of a Douglas Adams paperback, and then add beady little eyes -- to kindly include my full name, sig, initials, copyright, trade mark and credits. All I ask is Creative Control. Thank you.
