If there were supposed to be graphics in that file, then they didn't show up
on my Word for Windows.  I've been told that graphics are one of the things
that absolutely WILL NOT transfer between the Mac and PC versions of Word.  If
that is indeed what it's supposed to be then they will have to reconsider.  To
use graphics would mean loosing the little bit of transportability we do have
now.

Wil, is this "Control Flow" stuff indeed the flow chart drawings that I've
seen on your conference papers?  There is no way for us to port those to a PC.
