speedy idle

[Andrew]

Hello.  I have a strange problem.
I have a "faux" idle sequence built into my script where a handler 
called "idleStuff" is called on openCard.  Without going into too much 
detail, "idleStuff" runs some animation, and then at the end of 
"idleStuff" it says "send idleStuff to me in 50 milliseconds.
Anyway, I have a button called "reset" that sends "opencard" when 
clicked.  The funny thing is, when I click on "reset," the animation 
starts to go faster.  Every time I click on "reset" it runs faster and 
faster yet.
Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Thanks
Andrew
