There's a game somewhere around here where that's it's main theme.. ;-) If you've not seen my game "Gravitation" I suggest you take a look at that (on my page, link below). Source code is also available there to get those Newton's Laws in full operation. Any probs or Qs just mail me. I'm running a Gravitation Championship right now too (with prizes!), but interest is in the range of "moderate" to "negligable" so far :-( Without Robert Ryan's promotional help (rivalling Max Clifford's) it would've died a bloody death ages ago ;-} I hope you will enter. Cheers, Jim PS I'll try and fit what I have to say in one post next time :) -- ----------------------------------------- James Shaughnessy james@manc.u-net.com http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~shaughnj -----------------------------------------
