Timed User Input

[Rick Harrison]

Hi Mark,

I was using a repeat loop.  Hmm.. send-in-time.
What is that?

I'm not using a dialog such as answer or ask.
I was going to use a field for input, but have
been leaning more towards a multiple choice
solution with "mouseWithin", or anything else
which might work.

Rick
