Heh.  My main aim was to make it as low-overhead as possible for my poor
old firewall box, but animating him wouldn't add much, especially on modern
computers. :)

I agree; however I'm running FreeBSD on my firewall box, which has an old
vga monitor which isn't DPMS-capable, so it doesn't really ever shut down
unless I turn it off.  For all I know I may be the only one who actually
uses these screensavers.  So I thought I'd try maximize my entertainment
value.
