You're right. It's working anyway, and is not that dirty (less dirty
than the intro anyway ;))

I have no problem with it. I've made some minor changes to the credits
and now the music is played entirely.

Ah. I listened to Erek, but didn't notice that Catseyes were
"beautifull" chrysoberyls. Btw, I just love the fact that references are
real. Most people will certainly think this Chrysoberyl/Catseyes thing
is of our invention, but the few people that knows about gems will
certainly appreciate. We should try to do that as much as possible, me
thinks.
