accellerated learning for lojban

I've been playing around with a python game programming
library, and made a new version of my learnfast program for
lojban. It's still pretty rough, but I thought someone else
might want to play around with it. 

Run it, and it will present english meanings (text on
screen) followed by the corresponding lojban word
(text on screen + wave file). The words repeat in a
pattern designed to (hopefully) maximize recall. Also,
slow classical music plays (a la superlearning).

If the english word is green, it's a new word. Take
note of the gismu that follows.

If the english word is gray, it's a word that's already been
shown.  Try to remember the corresponding gismu (which will
be shown 1 second later)

The whole thing moves pretty fast, but the words are
repeated 6 times each (spread out over time). It takes about
12-15 minutes to run through the whole lesson, which
consists of the 64 most common lojban gismu.

Eventually, this will all tie in with a logflash like
program to test and enforce the words that have just 
been learned.

Anyway, you can get it at:

It requires python and pygame:

Let me know what you think. :)
