Great games for sure, I recently discovered that A-L is actually easier on
the left hand for those who can touch type in DoD so  P-L-SW and then A L,
your hands will thank you for it!

This is turning it a rehash of a topic I brought up probably about a year
ago, which was asking the community "what was your favorite CoCo 1/2 game"
we actually came up with a top 10 list (I need to find it) and I was going
to try and schedule an interview where we could all get on Skype, talk
about our favorite games, what was it about them that we loved, share tips
and tricks, etc., record this and make it a YouTube video

I need to open that dialog again, after CoCoFEST! and make it a reality.
