[Coco] jeweled versions was Re: SideKick 1.15

[Brian Blake]

That's probably as good a reason as any for Willard's problem. I thought 
mine was having hardware issues when Jeweled acted upon mine. Then I 
tried another CoCo with the same results. Then another - thinking well 
either it's a problem with Jeweled or I've got three CoCo3's with 
hardware issues. Guess you could say I was testing Einstein's definition 
of insanity. Then Briza sent me an image of his game and everything 
worked like it was supposed to, proving for just a short while that I 
wasn't crazy...
