A "gotcha" I noticed yesterday, or the day before is that, wired the way
it's shown, (with the register outputs sinking current) if all the
register outputs come up reset on power-on, then there won't be enough
current to turn on all the LEDs and you'll have to wait for an entire
cycle before the thing starts to chase properly. If you've got the pot
set to "full slow" that could take about 30 seconds, so it might be
working, but since nothing was appearing to happen it looked like it
wasn't working.
In order have it start right away the shift register outputs should
_source_ current, so I fixed the circuit and attached a copy of the new
schematic.

John, Hate to be a party-pooper, but I believe, unless this starts
just right it doesn't work :-(

How so?
