	Now that was a good game.  I was only able to keep the thing going
for 50 or so days though (as I recall); after that the failure rate just
got too high.

	Anyway, to answer your question, I don't have any documentation.
I do recall how I learned to play though:  I answered yes to the
"auto-setup" question, and watched all the options that were set.  It did
take a few days though, but if nobody else can help you with docs, you
might try my way.

	Also:  Regular maintenance of turbines...etc. when you take them
off-line (during off peak) really helps.
