 * __"Xtreme Rat Challenge"__** (formerly known as the Rat Olympics)

[] For any of you looking for a challenge, you might find this interesting. I've heard it's pretty cool and very realistic. However, I've also heard that's the problem, it's so realistic that it can be frustrating. Like a real rat, Sniffy might not always respond the way you want him to and it might take a while to start getting him to do what you want. However, you might find it really interesting to try it out. If you are having trouble running it from this site, I believe we have a hard copy of the software (an older version, I think) in the Media Center.
