Hi Acorn--

Here's a revised version of the Jones Soda/device puzzle for Saturday's
playtesting party.  If you don't have time to update the device, the old
version should be fine, too.

Thanks!

Jones Soda 2.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a series of multiple-choice questions which appears in the given
order when the arrival code is entered into the device (first section
below).  You'll get the code from the label on the Jones Soda bottle.

The question will appear on one "screen", and a knob click then takes you
to the next screen, where the first line always displays "WHO AM I?" and
the second line changes to one of four answers or "<back>" as you turn the
knob.

Each section between hash marks below is a pair of question and answers.
Correct answers are marked with an asterisk (*).  These shouldn't appear
on the display, obviously.

After you answer each question, display "CORRECT!" or "WRONG ANSWER."  If
correct, display the next question on the same screen.  If incorrect, a
knob click takes you back to the main menu, and you then have to enter the
code again and answer all questions again, in order.

When you answer all questions correctly, the solution message (last
section) is displayed.

Question: after this is solved, should the arrival code change to the
confirmation code?  That is, should entering the same code then simply
display the solution, bypassing all the questions?  Should we allow them
to see the questions later if they want to?
