My apologies for not sending an acknowledgment e-mail sooner, I've been a
bit busy this weekend.  Every looks really good and I've very happy
everything is tied in now.  I've been testing it off and on all weekend.  BS
did have a hiccup when I tried to load Pedro's Journal vocab, but I get the
feeling that was more my VM being uppity.

The menu is functioning perfectly and I couldn't be happier with it, great
job on that Doug.  The only thing I've noticed is when the Launcher pulls
the files.  It takes some time, at least for me, to pull each file down from
the iLocker account.  The kids won't have the terminal to let them know what
its doing.  I think either a progress bar or even just a message box saying
something like "Retreiving files, please wait" would be adequate to let them
know that the game is doing something and didn't freeze up.

Otherwise I haven't encountered any problems with the menu system and the
games.  Zach, the blood smear is awesome.  It really adds to the game.

I'm hoping to have the new levels up by Tuesday.  I plan on 10 for now.  If
you think there should be more, please let me know.  Doug, thank you for
adding those new enemies in, they look great and add some more flavor to the
games.

Thats about it from me.  I'll keep play testing and get those new levels
done.  If I run into any problems I'll post a bug report or let someone
know.  Cheerio!
