I respectfully disagree. Would not the continuing work involved to correct
"mistaken blocks" be rather more labor-intensive than the one-time effort
put forth to create these self-correcting penalty boxes? I think Marc is
onto something here. Clean, simple, self-correcting, utterly imperfect, but
pretty darn good. And no continuing maintenance work. :) Gotta love that
part! That's what computer programming is FOR, imho. Get the computer to
do stuff repeatedly, so I don't have to! *grins*
