Good Lord, Colin... in this case I'm going to have to decline. I barely 
understand what should be going on and do not yet know what actually _is_ 
going on. I do not yet consider myself knowledgeable enough to file a bug 
on something I just started learning three days ago.

If someone more expert than I can reproduce the behavior, or wants me to 
run dumb tests to verify, I'll be happy to help. But I won't take the 
responsibility just at this time to say with authority that something 
is/isn't a bug... beginners should not destabilize a programming effort 
with (possibly) inaccurate or misleading reports.
