To view the story retold in ASCII art, use a telnet program to connect to a site in the Netherlands, towel.blinkenlights.nl. You can do so on an Apple OS X system by opening the Terminal program found in Applications/Utilities and then issuing the command telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl. You can issue the same command from a Linux system. You can stop the display by typing Ctrl-] and then typing quit at the telnet> prompt. On a Microsoft Windows system, you can use PuTTY; set the connection type to telnet rather than ssh. If you've ever created ASCII art, you can appreciate the magntitude of the effort by the following individuals:
