	I got no error, but I used the uudecode on an earlier Fish
Disk (before disk #40; I forget the number).  Nice game!

	I did find a BUG in GravityWars.  If you launch a missile,
and you press <RETURN> before the missile has travelled its full path,
you go into an infinite loop.
	GravityWars seems to think that I am hitting <RETURN> constantly,
for every prompt for "Angle" and "Velocity".  I guess that the <RETURN>
is sitting in a buffer somewhere, constantly being read and re-read.
