Dan hit it on the money. The project is on Bob's super swiki and is 
called WanderingLetters (around April,2001). There is a Realplayer video 
of a presentation by Alan at Polytechnic University demonstrating this. 
I think the crowd was quite impressed. I wanted to see how close I came 
to understanding how it was done. Thanks for the timely responses everybody.
