The mormons seem to be running on a supercomputer of some kind. They
have few members, and one member has done over 1000 units so far.

I've only completed one unit, but I'm losing time because I'm getting a
bug that the program is looking for a text file and can't find it. This
is on my PII 233/64 machine at home, running the initial release of
Win95
