I've begged Chuck to dig around to see if he has an old copy of the floppy lying around and upload it, but so far I don't know of a copy online you can run. Its bold pioneering balance of art and slease deserves preservation, and the story behind it is hilarious. Edit: OMG I've just found the Geraldo episode with C…

American culture is very prudish, courtesy of its Puritanical roots which even today cause us to label a woman sucking off an enormous penis (like in "Deep ASCII", referenced in article) as so-called "pornography".
It's kind of funny that every example the article shows is a screenshot or video. Not a single one was actual ASCII text in the HTML...

Where in the world is a clip of a woman "sucking off an enormous penis" not considered pornography? I'm European and I can't really believe that
