Thanks for the feedback.  I've been working on 1.0 this past week off and on. 
You can bet this little "feature" will go bye-bye.  Don't worry about your set
up (I'm running Sys 7 too).  What I *don't* do is flush out all the 'flaps'
that you accumulate.  As per why the space bar is not recognized as a "release
me" signal, I've never encountered this.  I'll sift through the code though and
see if I can't make this more reliable.

So now I'm wondering - is that it for bugs?  Only that?  Wow.
BTW I'm also trying to shave a few milliseconds here and there to pick up the
game speed when you get over two enemies (past level 10).
