Hello Kevin,
Thank you for your thoughts on this program.
I think it's very interesting how it works, and I'd like to try it out.
But before I do, I plan to do more research on it.
I have checked out that Super Nova site before, and I don't like it.  I seem
to have a lot of trouble with it.  The site is updated every 20 minutes.
However, the page refreshes rather frequently.  Plus, my computer seems to
freeze up a lot, when at this site.
I find it rather difficult to deal with.
Thanks again for your thoughts, I do appreciate it.
Terri
