   now).  All I want to know if someone can point me to an address where
   I can purchase a t-shirt with this creature on it.  Thanx in Advance.

Kirk generally does the tee-shirts, and had some of them for sale at
his recent talk in Holland.  I bought one from him (well, actually, I
bought _his_ - I had to wash it when I got it home! :-) and believe he
has more for sale, if you somehow can arrange to get the shipping
details worked out (I don't know if he even sells them outside of
conferences).

I dunno though - I wish he'd gotten Mr. Lassiter to do the artwork for
the tee-shirt as well.  Whoever did the artwork for this one has the
demon looking more like a mutant chipmunk! :-(
