You must have had some time on your hands to type that up. How about a whole township diagram with section lines and numbers next!?

More of a statement than a question.

Maybe it's one of those computer generated images that if you stare at it long enough you see space ships or something like that.

or maybe Dave just needs a vacation.

And the question is?

No Willi, I think it is just a new generation of football square pools.

4 squares = one quarter per = one game. Fill the names in somewhere and put the numbers on the outside. Or even on the inside?

Then let the winners of each quarter knife fight for the winner. Or in a democracy, they could all just split it.

Then again, in our numeric world from 0 to 9 possible points, they'd need 5 squares with 2 numbers in each one. Sounds like they need some government lotting done to make up the 5th square..

I like my square pools better, but always willing to try another way to win something meaningless.

Then again RADAR, Dave is our top secret administrator, much like all true democracies ..... reverse trickle down comes to my simple mind...;-) That's ok, I'd buy a square, even if it's a triangle or some weird polygon. Just no ellipsoids please. I'm about maxed out on those.

Then again in the surveying world with no records, you always are the winner when and if you make a decision. Stick to your "guns" and wait until the next rat comes along.

Go ahead... Make My Day

That "20" done with text is cheating. Let's see a big "20" using just ascii symbols.

Uh oh!

So what section is that? You left that out. Guess I'll have to send this on to the CA board for bad drafting standards and incomplete information. 🙂

Uh oh!

I believe what Mr. Karoly is doing here is called "ASCII Art." Back in the early days of the internet it was all the rage to do detailed drawings of things as a text file. See some great examples here:

http://www.textfiles.com/art/

I recall seeing one in the early '90s that was a pic of the mona lisa. Pretty good too considering...

Uh oh!

Those were in the lower two thirds of the file. I never knew that our posts had a size limit but apparently the ceiling is 10,000 characters. I had pasted in the entire ascii cow art file but when I hit the OK-Submit button I got an error message informing me of the limit and telling me that my post was 29,000+ characters. Oops.

Uh oh!

I have an old IBM printout somewhere in my files that would be a timely addition to this topic of discussion.

It would be improper to do so because it is a detailed nude graphic representation of Marilyn Monroe that I believe originated in the offices of RR Ammunition Depot back in the 70s and is very impressive and consists of the multiple keyboard inputs at the proper location.

It came into my possession as a find in a closet of a home I purchased in 1978.

I think that it should be retrieved from its hiding place and scanned.

Wonder what they will say down at Kinkos?

It also reminds me of a form-able hacker I knew who referred to himself as "Ghost" that would show his skills on a blog we spent many hours on in the 90s. He was a true artist at forming pictorial concepts from his keyboard skill that would fill a page with graphic genius in the amazement of everyone online.

The true genius was that what his drawings were something that was currently in discussion and he was preparing it in real time.

B-)
