Yes! Sorry Leo. Your code was very good, and I mean that (except for a 
couple of gotos). I did have to un-comment a line which was preceded by
a comment saying "Warning : remove before flight" or some such thing. 

The rest of the code could serve as an object lesson to software management
types of the result of the "to many cooks" syndrome. "Well, if they say
one guy can get the program done in a year, then 52 guys oughtta get it
done in 1 week!"

Any opinions are my own since nobody else would ever want them.
