    Star wars from work :D

    To follow up on Howards movie a minute post:
    For anyone who wishes to watch star wars 4 while at work, the whole movie is available in ascii animation at telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl

    or go to a command prompt then type telnet then at the telnet prompt type "open towel.blinkenlights.nl" without the inverted commas. This is second to none and a testament to geekiness.

    The cow is of the bovine ilk;
    One end is moo, the other, milk.
