Too much time? That's affirm!! O_O

Deeply awesome? Not really, no. It operates far, far too slowly to watch 
it do anything useful. It's not clear which symbol is currently "under" 
the R/W head. It's completely opaque why it writes the symbol it does. I 
could continue.

Technically it produces the same result as a [finite] Turing machine, 
and it's far nicer than anything I could ever build. That doesn't make 
it awesome though.
