There are more than just a few offensive words in this demo..there are
actually graphics in the scroll-text of parts of the human anatomy!  Anyway, I
sent the complete, unsensored version to Xanth so it should be up there.  Just
ask Tad about it.  Actually the version I sent up was the Beta version of the
Demo and it has a bug in the RvB demo's scroll text I believe.  Otherwise it's
complete and works fine.
