	Now we are describing ATRAGON.	This was an ancient
	Japanese monster movie.  The Atragon was a super sub
	built by the Captain Nemo-esque main character.
	It was a sub, it could slowly fly on belly rockets,
	and it had a giant drill on the nose so it could
	travel through the ground like a giant mole.
