  2. #C Population in generation t is asymptotic to  5 log(t)/log(2).
  3. #C More specifically, for  n>=0,  the population in gen  960*2^n
  4. #C is  5n + 376.
  5. #C A glider bounces back and forth between a Cordership and a fixed
  6. #C reflector; the round trip time doubles with each trip.  Whenever
  7. #C the glider hits the fixed reflector, an extra glider is created;
  8. #C these gliders eventually dominate the population.
