------------- Just discovered something interesting the other day, and am curious... In one of our school papers here at Rutgers, there's usually ads/comments/references to an organization in Texas known as the Church of the SubGenius. Their emblem/logo is a smiling man with a pipe in his mouth who is known as "Bob Dobbs", or just "Bob". The other day I found that this same picture of "Bob" is part of the built in character set on the ST! To see "Bob", go into 40 column low res mode, enter Basic, and: print chr$(28);chr$(29) print chr$(30);chr$(31) Anybody have any info about how "Bob" got into the ST? Were it's designers members of the Church of the SubGenius? Or was this picture originally from something else entirely, and just happened to adopted by that organization??????? Curiously, Ray Wilmott wilmott@topaz.rutgers.edu
