Alex,

Wow!  you are quick.  Thanks!  I will have lot of fun playing around  
with that.  A phase slider is a good idea so it starts out making  
more circular patterns, and I guess the frequency sliders could be  
played with a bit --for slight frequency differences.  I will let you  
know if I come up with any good combinations.
