It's been there.  There used to be a web version as an animated .gif,
IIRC, but I don't remember for sure.  I guess the original's online in
a Java applet at http://www.asciimation.co.nz/ - for those behind a
firewall which won't allow telnet, etc...  Don't build a jet-powered
beer cooler in your NZ garage without a fire extenguisher. :)
