	A brief note.  I made the "slight" mistake of letting Mitch Lopes
copy the animation.  Next thing I knew it was on BBS-JC.  From there it will
probably propogate like coat hangers.

	I do not object to this at all; in fact, I encourage it.  However,
be aware that there are two versions (already!).  One is the version shown
at FAUG, and has a couple of errors in it.  There's a glitch in the ball
object, and the ball skids.  I made a new version without these errors.

	The version Mitch posted to BBS-JC has the glitches in it; he has
since received a copy of the fixed version.  The fixed version has also been
sent to Fred Fish (via Federal Excess, no less) for inclusion in his
library.

	I'm also tossing a copy at Bill Volk, who will no doubt compress the
$#!+ out of it.  Once I get a hyper-compressed version back from him, I'll
put it together with the object definition and camera/motion control files,
and throw *THAT* at Fred, so you'll be able to make a copy of your very own,
or play with it.  Whatever the hell you wanna do...

	Whether or not the "broken" version becomes a collector's item, I
don't know.  Just be aware that there is a version I think is more correct.

	And no, I won't bother trying to describe it, either.
