	Think of something like a 2-player Pitfall or Adventure.  If one
of the
	players (the networked player) moves off screen, he would just
disappear, 
	while player #1 of course continues to be the "focal point" that
the
	game follows.

	Been considered extensively.   Syncronization problems rear
their ugly head.    If both players are in the same room, which sprites
do you use to draw them? Who collided with what on which frame?


	I can dream, can't I? ;-)

	You most certainly can...
