Two ways to do it (assuming I've followed the problen correctly):

1.    in the original explosion scene, offset the whole anim by
    how ever many frames using the "shift all keys" option in "scene".

2.    after loading-from-scene, go into all the motion graphs for
    any motion relating to the explosion and use "sift keys" and
    "shift frames by" whatever amount.

While on the subject of "load from scene", can someone PLEASE make an
arexx script/plugin which brings up a requester listing all the objects
and lights in teh given scene and lets you select which ones you want
to load in.

And also, i think all file requesters should allow you to select multiple
objects when loading in. When you have created 20 objects for a new scnene,
it'd be so much nicer to be able to load them all in one go.

Row.
