Here's some more code i'm having problems with. The problem is that it
doesn't allow input for lines #3 through #8. What it should be doing is
prompting lines #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7 and #8. It was working before, I
don't know what the hell is going on. If someone could look at it, and maybe
point me in the right direction, i'd appreciate it. Thanks.
