"figlet"

stands for "Frank, Ian and Glenn's LETters." Inspired by Frank's .sig, Glenn wrote (most of) it, and Ian helped.

The FIGLET Authors

Glenn Chappell (c486scm@semovm.semo.edu)
did most of the work. You can e-mail him but he is not an e-mail fanatic; people who e-mail Glenn will probably get answers, but if you e-mail his best friend:
Ian Chai (chai@uiuc.edu)
who is an e-mail fanatic, you'll get answers, endless conversation about the mysteries of life, invitations to join some 473 mailing lists and a free toaster. (Well, ok, maybe not the free toaster.)
Frank
inspired this whole project with his .sig, but don't e-mail him; he's decidedly an un-e-mail-fanatic.
