Cool! :)  (I'm Bill - 3rd place for Vectoroids. :)  I need a sash or a

I honestly haven't been in the mood to work on TuxMath for some
reason... of course, the whole Sept. 11th attack made us all question
the premise of the game, but it seems most people feel we should
keep it, if not tweak it only slightly.

Congrats! :)  (This past holiday season, I'd tell people that my

Well, testing and suggestions are always useful! ;) ;)
(I especially want them for TuxMath, so I can finish the options screen)

I'm also interested in working on some other, more suite-like games...
every time I see little electronic education kids' toys at stores,
I want to make stuff like it for PCs. :)
