Are you using ON OPENCARD? That's probably your big problem- When you open up the stack, EVERY SINGLE TIME, it will repeat that operation. Diagram of your problem: Card 1 (go to card 2) ------------> Card 2 (go to card 1) <-------------- It will continue to go on and on and on... It's just an infinite back and forth run, and after 2 or 3 of those HC goes wacko. _Don't_ put go to card xx commands in an opencard, you can get pretty confused.
