Certainly, to get to the higher levels of KABOOM!, it is more than 
necessary to have the short paddle throw.  What I love about that game 
(and it's certainly in my top 5) is the way you don't even think about 
moving the paddle when things get hectic;  you just see and reflexively 
"will" the buckets into position.  I really am going to have to rig up 
that serial port to paddle controller job for DOS Stella...
