Interesting idea but personally my first action would be remove the
banner add from the code.  It might work better for a server game
but unless the ad information is hard to distinguish I remove it.
Personally I think sponsorship (like E.T. and Reses Pieces(sp?))
is a better route.  Assuming the sponsorship wasn't too blatant and
annoying it's likely no one would remove it.
