So, I bought myself a Lynx.  I really like it.  And I am not much of a video 
game player since about 1983, so that is saying a lot.

I've got Blue Lightning, and I cannot get past the part of "Mission 4:
Canyon Run."  I can whiz around in the canyons alright, and even blow 
up the tanks.  But then, there seems to be a wall of rock so wide that 
I can't fly around it to the left or to the right.  So I crash.

It took me about 12 hours of play (no, not in a row, I have a job) to get 
this far.  For the life of me, I can't get past this part of 
Mission 4.

Help!!!

P.S. Baseball Heroes sucks.  Rampart is one of my favorite video games
of all time.  I'd love to hook up with comlynx with another SF bay area
Lynx'er who has Rampart.

Problems with Mission 4 of Blue Lightning?  Can't seem to navigate around the
mesas?  I had the same problem until I made a simple discovery.  All you need
to do is look for the side of the mesa with thinner, smaller columns of rock.
Look carefully at some of the smaller walls, and you will see that one edge is
marked by these thinner, smaller mesas.  So when you get to that seemingly
impossible wall of rock, look VERY carefully for thin columns of rock.
The resolution of the Lynx makes it kind of difficult until you know what to
look for.  Anyway, the thinner columns mark a gap you can fly through.
Be aware, though, that you may have to do some quick turns.
Good luck!

 I know!!!! [about blue lightening]...shit, that level [4] canyon run, took me
more time than the rest of the game.... I've finished the game.I had the level
codes for ever level ]that took me like 30 hours to get]... but my friend
wanted to borrow them.. and he lost them.. there's no way I can get pst that
damned canyon.. and you kow what? once you're out of the rocks, you still have
about another 1/4 of the runto go, with tanks and stuff.... so a couple times
you might get through, then get destroyed.
just keep tyring.
