Don't laugh, I have a even bigger version of the same animation, except
it's in color. :-)  (10 frames resulted in a 400K $c2 file...sheesh.
looks real nice though.)

I agree, however, that it should be removed.  It was never meant to be
a "permenant" archive, especially not on cco.  Maybe after we get
our dedicated apple 2 disk, but definitely not now.
