    My friend, the psychologist, who asked me to put together a little program
    for him has asked me if I could get the program to pause for a second
    between turns and to display a progress indicator to make it look like the
    program's running some calculations in the background.

    I'm thinking the progress bar would be fairly straight-forward... Just a
    for loop, set up to display a bunch of hashmarks or ASCII block characters
    one at a time... How would I get it to take a second or two to run through
    the loop? That sounds like an awfully long time.
