   Sorry this is late.  I've been working too many hours this weekend, and I HAD to catch some sleep yesterday and today.  When you reach a point that you actually start feeling sick from not sleeping, something has to give.

   Anyway, there are 3 new 'bots this round.  Al and Willie finally let me know that they wanted to play, so AS400 and Griffon have come in a little late.  Also, a new player has signed up, welcome in Ag.
   If anyone knows someone that wants to join in, don't let me know.  I think that 15 'bots is going to just about kill me as it is, so this going to be my limit for now.

   I'm going to make a change in the timing of the programming.  Instead of 36hrs after the first person, I'm extending it to 48hrs.  This will let everyone miss a day from checking their e-mail, and still be able to make the turn.  BTW, if you haven't gotten your turn in and it's past the due time...go ahead and send it!  I may not have gotten to the turn, yet.  The 48hrs is the fastest I will allow myself to start the turn, but sometimes I'll have to take longer.  If I've already started the turn when I get your programming, I'll just send you a message that I've already randomized you for the turn.  But it won't hurt to try.
