[Coco] Jeweled game done

[Charlie]

Hi Roger. I received my disk yesterday. Thanks!
You did an excellent job. I really enjoy this one and I typically like more 
arcade style games.
I've already played for a few hours (I was up playing till 2am playing). So 
far the highest level I've reached is 15 in one session.
Can the game ever end? or do you just quit when you have had enough? Also 
the levels increase in number
but level 15 seemed as easy as level 1. Am I right about that?

Charlie
