Regarding this whole speed issue...
It's really chugging on my machine, yet, when I view on another machine with
about 1/2 the power of mine...it's playing fine.
Can anyone offer some assistance as far as optimizing this file? Please
email me and I'll ship you an URL right away.
Thanks for any assistance.

Not true!
The eye is forgiving of objects in motion ... So you can reduce the number
of calculations per frame by breaking up a tween of size, color and
position into two seperate tweens - both of them tweening position, and
each only tweening size or color.
There's other tricks one can come up with if you can break out of the mode
of only thinking about the animation, and think about the animation AND
the perception of it.
