Sorry I'm so chatty today; I woke up this morning full of fire.

Take the new galaxy.c and change 'effects' line around 351 to the second
option.  Now run it and select the 'Sparkle' option.  Some thoughts ...

What's left on the screen after the galaxies collide is a *very*
random assortment of colors.  Suppose we take a quadrant sample of
that and generate a number out of it.  Would this work as a very
simple random number generator?
