I tried that :) I created a second textview control. It ends up
pushing the button off the bottom of the screen.
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="@string/empty_string"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:text="@string/btn_start_game"
/>
