The logo is what I think the thread starter was trying to post originally.
Apparently Paul Hickey did the ascii art.

Yes, I admit that I was only stealing that idea (and the one improved couple of posts later).

In fact, I really liked the one posted later... (with a tiny modification... no harm in it, right?)

I've consulted the I-Ching, gazed into my crystal balls, read the Tarot, read my tea leaves (very awkward since I only drink instant coffee), cast the Runes, and disembowelled half-a-dozen cats to examine their entrails...but I CANNOT get a definite date.

It could be, if you take the results of my second Google search. Or you could just take the definition from my first search:

http://www.atpco.net/atpco/products/frop_rm.shtml

Somehow I didn't think that was what he meant, though. Hence the second search.

My intuition is saying... October 31, 2012 @ approximately 7:00 PM as a Trick or Treat to all Slackers.
