	Although this will work, Apple has said before that the GrayRgn is
READONLY!  You are NOT to modify it! Especially under MF this is an even BIGGER
no-no since you are doing this behind the back of other apps and the GrayRgn
is a LMGlobal and the effect is VERY interesting.

	Now that I've done Apple's job for them, I'll expect the check in the
mail ;-)
