Subject: combining turtles to one button
From: "Kathleen Basovsky" <kbasovsky@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2007 13:51:38 -0400

Issue- I have a student who has created a zoo with lots of moving
animals(turtles) with buttons. She wants to condense all of her buttons and
procedures into one button/procedures so that all 14 buttons(turtles) move at
the same time.
 Thanks.
