	// write you a simple key encoding mechanism, I'd be happy to do so;
	// just contact me:  Don_Yacktman@byu.edu.  I will charge you for the
	// service, but I don't ask much.  (It's based upon how long it takes
	// me to write it, and since I already have some algorithms, I could use
	// a simpler method that's a permutation of what I already have and
	// your cost wouldn't be much more that about $15.  Contact me...)
	// One other note:  A hacker could always come in and disable the
	// keys.  We don't try to circumvent this at all, so you might want
	// to use a more complex integrity method to fool hackers.  Again, I
	// can give suggestions to the truly paranoid, for a fee.  However,
	// unless you're really paranoid, there is no need for this since a
	// hacker will eventually crack whatever scheme you use, and this
	// scheme is sufficient to keep everyone else honest, I believe.
