Hmmm, if that was a typo then the loop would iterate once for each 
character in the response evaluating (eventually) non-existent responses 
which should be fast but... we have been wondering my the thing was 
hugely slow at times, I will try this fix later.

Nice catch, Frank! (It looks like a catch to me.) btw, JS goes into the 
loop even when the conditionis false initially? Hard to believe they got 
that wrong. I will add a preemptive strike anyway, cannot hurt.
