Very good question mike. It is difficult sometimes. Others have mentionedmike said:very interesting group, but how can u teach novices and explain circuits

mikeVery good question mike. It is difficult sometimes. Others have mentioned
some of the ways it is done but often beginners just need an explanation in
theory.
And for the record, I hate that %$#@ ascii art.

thankyou Tom for your help! much apprieciated.
mikeYou refer people to books, the internet is not a replacement for such
traditional material.
You stash the diagram on the web, or an ftp site, and include the URL
in the message.
You post the diagram to a binary newsgroup, keeping in mind that it is
not an efficient method of distributing such information, and as a result
such newsgroups are not available on all newsservers.

Thanks for your reply, much apprieciated.

For a trivial to semi-trivial circuit or a quick picture that's worth
maybe 500 words it's hard to beat. Also, a few hundred bytes VS a few
hundred K is easy to take.

Data density is a good point,
but I find longevity of the drawing in the Google Usenet archive
http://groups.google.com
(along with the text of the post) to be an even bigger advantage.
Really great data doesn't lose value over time
and the ethereal nature of websites makes ASCII diagrams in an archive invaluable.
...then there's the Slashdot Effect
http://www.google.com/search?&q=the-Slashdot-Effect-is-an-Internet
where everybody and his brother
tries to access the same (rinky-dink) site at the same time.
John:
Note the use of the ellipsis and lower case
when starting a thought with a conjunction.
Hmm - that's a subtle grammatical point I've never come across before.
Even at the start of the first sentence in a new post by a new author?
