Well... what's to tell about the intro... it was the first demo/intro/whatever
I have ever finished so don't expect too much (although I think it has worked
out quite well)... 
The name came out of a book I read... the description of the name is given
in the intro.
What more is there to tell about this intro... It's too slow (if I had taken
the time it would have been much faster, but my vacation was running to an
end)
If there is one thing I have found out, then it is that you shouldn't put too
much text in a 4Kb-intro... In this case the code is less than 2Kb and the rest
is the text. The writer-code is written quite messy, but now that I have it
working I am not planning on rewriting it to do it better.
Should the intro run too fast... sorry... I could have implemented a timer
routine to keep track of the speed or I could have hooked it to the vertical
retrace, but the first technique is impossible because it would have to be
implemented from the beginning and the last one looks terrible when it is
stuck between one and two retraces per frame.

the Unlord/Xylem    I hope you got your christmas-demo done...
                    What do you think of it?

Pyromaniac/Beyond   Well... here it is... my first production...

Dennis/Courtney     I just hate it when I can't think of something to tell
                    someone, don't you...

Asmodean            Does the path of one of the lenses remind you of something

Aglarana            (Although I doubt you will ever read this)
                    did you get my christmas-card?

Stone/Dust          thanks for your article about sine-tables in 4Kb demos...
                    It has helped me a lot!

Mythos/Real Time    The same goes for you for your article about word square
                    roots...
