  Introduction
 --------------
    Ok, I'm back with another Kosmic Music Video release.  I really feel
    like the first one was better as a "music video", but as far as standard
    demo effects go it didn't cut it.  This one has a more demo-ish song
    from Sandman (formerly known as Siren), so I made a demo-ish music video.
    The effects in this demo took some time to get together this time, and
    with the holiday season and finals approaching I didn't have much time
    at all put those extra finishing touches on it (it's called design).
    So, like it, don't like it, whatever - here it is. Have fun.  
    Oh yeah, and coders, if you would like - I will give out the source code
    to one or two of the effects if you would like to learn.  Email me and
    tell me which code you'd like to have (except 3d engine) and I will 
    release what ever is most popular.


  System Requirements
 ---------------------
    - A Computer :)  Pentium 90+ preferred, has NOT been tested on less

  Words of Wisdom
 -----------------
  Allrighty, I guess that is all for this time. I don't think there will be
  another music video released for a while now. I will be busy over the
  holidays and schooling is a big priority next semester.  I *AM* thinking
  about quickly putting out an XMAS music video, so if you guys would like
  to see one of those, email me (jmX).  Oh, and another thing - this one
  has a few cool command line parameters. :)


  Signing Off,
