i wonder why there are problems installing.  if the problems are programmed to 
happen every so often, then my cynicism would be justified.  :)

please do! even try a friend's computer or something.  i keep getting lots of 
wows over here when i demo for people.  wild, all the interesting discussions 
it has already caused.

i'm working now to make the right contacts (bandwidth!) so i can run a 
gigantic parallel-evolution with (one might hope) thousands of computers 
donating their CPU cycles in service of the giant crucible of evolution.  
donators could be rewarded by being the first to view the record-holding 
evolved runner play out its life on the screen.

something like seti@home, only a little more organic.  whaddya think?
