Re: the HC scrip tthat waited for 5 secs and then reported whether
or not you clicked, except it always thinks you clicked.
I don't have 2.0v2 HC (yet), but try this:
put the line    "wait while the mouseclick" at the top of the handler.
This will clear out the event q of any leftover unprocessed clicks.
I find it handy for clearing up probs with users clicking twice instead
of once, causing the second click to do something unexpected.
