This posting was completely intended as absolute HUMOR and should not
be taken as an attack on anyone or anyone's fine programs, gifs or
.par files!  For you who may be humor challenged (you may well have
put me in yourr kill file long ago) what we do is take the exact
opposite (I love your programs and pictures) and give it a twist.  ;-)

Not a joke, the program exists and is being polished up as I write...
Look in alt.binaries.pictures.fractals for example results: 04558520.gif
and 02066307.gif.

Warmly,
