1) It's not possible to have a static data structure bigger than 32K in
size. You may want to consider a more dynamic structure than a two-dimension
al array.

2) That's exactly the case. Since variables aren't automatically initialized,
you need to set the next field to be nil, otherwise your loop won't know
when to terminate.

3) there's a bug in scanf(). The quickie workaround is to use gets(), and
then sscanf() to parse the input. It's an extra step, but it does seem to
work.
