If I change the time.time() calls to time.clock(), I get that too.

I did have the import wrong for the time module.  Since I originally wrote 
this on XP.

Changed:

    from time import clock

to:

    import time

    # use time.clock if it works, else use time.time.
    if time.clock() != time.clock():
        time.time = time.clock


There is differences between time.clock and time.time between linux and 
windows.  I'm using Ubuntu.  The above should fix it.

File attached with corrections.

Thanks, removed the scene.range assignment.
