        Five rows, in the number 4

        No money lost to the great economic boom - I'm benched

        At least it would look like the number 4 if I could align correctly

            At least it would look like five rows as well if there was another row.

                    Cracked it I think - watch this

                    ...o...........o

                    o
                    ....o
                    .............o
                    ..................o
                    ...........o
                    .......o
                    o
                    .........o

                    no wait, feck! only 4 rows of 4!

                    P.S. Unless you can wiggle the alignments round slightly to get an extra row. Can't see how though.
