Thank you!

I am not sure i will be interested in running it, but
i would love to have a look at the code.  Maybe after
seeing it, i will fall in love with the basic design
and go from there.

If it was open source, or had some form of public
license, maybe we could place a copy in a lab area
on AdaPower.  I have always felt that games were
a good learning tool for new programmers, and code
examples are a good place to start.
