Hi, All.  I got an idea for a plug-in from LWPro.  Dan Ablan mentioned
that you could use bones for making a person breath or muscles flex.  I
was thinking about how cool it would be if it could be done automatically.

Here's what I mean.  You have an upper arm and an lower arm.  You put a
bone in be bicep of the upper arm and put a limited region on it.  You
give it a minimum & maximum size in the Muscle Plug-IN (how many times
have I misspelled that word?) for the Bicep Bone.  You also set a flag
that says when thelower arm rotates in Pitch, size the bone.  Now, when you
rotate the Lower Arm in Pitch, The bone will get bigger or smaller,
reflecting the contraction of the bicep.  Anyone else like this idea
(like Fori and all you othe LW Plug-in programmers?)  You could even do
it in ARexx... :)
