My Apologies Ernst,
I simplified the error too much.

Once I get my Rebel Going again (I'm blaming my Christmas Ball-free Mouse) I'll
test your position out.

I'm confidently expecting Rebel-Windows to run 100% crash free, and eagerly
await it's release.

Until then I'm gonna play with the Tigger (is that the postman I hear), until I
beat it, & send the game to both Christophe & robert.

Tina (definitely not Rolf)
