Thanks for the suggestion.  However, the tour runs just fine when I
copy it to a hard disk and do not use the system/finder on the tour disk.
Ed's comment appears not to be the reason that the tour fails when run from
a MacJANET network volume, which is the only place it seems to fail.  I have
contacted the developers of MacJANET but have not heard back yet.
