Does 2600 River Raid end?

Does it freeze up at a certain score? Is there a place that is
*absolutely* unpassable, e.g. the river is narrower than the plane, or
there is a sharp curve your plane just *can't* do?

How does it generate so much scenery anyway?  Some kind of highly tweaked
random number? Does anyone around here have any kind of understanding of
the algorithm?
