Oops.  I changed the operator from an internal one to an external one
(price of tea in China) at the last minute and, thereby, screwed it up.
[grin]  It's got the mismatch between languages but not the cyclic
cause.  Since the domain of the operator is not inside the game, it
doesn't really add complexity to the system.  Sorry.  A better example
operator would be one based on the current system.... like how often the
cop blinks.
