Going well.  I was planning to cover the AI spec this time, but I've been
thinking about taking a detour into PC speaker sound FX, since somebody
asked about them earlier, and it would be best as an addendum to the sound
lesson we just did.  While being no expert on speaker tweaking, I did some
interesting ones for OZ and I could introduce Simultaneous Event Driven
Programming concepts that we'll need later with such a lesson. Our
PC speaker sound FX need to be time-sliced to work in our gaming
environment, so we need to plan effects around changing sound(XXX) at
discrete intervals...

But I may change my mind again...
