	A (perhaps obvious) couple of details on the MIT TRAVELLER
skill system (a.k.a. "the Gazis system"):
	When one goes up a skill point, training points are lost.
Hence, when Rod Hotjets, now at 2.1.3 succeeds next time, his
skill rating becomes PILOT-2.2.
	In addition, while rolling a "12" just gets one a training
point, normally the players get the chance to roll for a skill
point (which usually turns into a training point.) Typically,
a PC will have a chance at one (or at most a few) skill point
rolls after any long adventure. Bribing the customs officials
on a single planet is not enough to improve BRIBERY! Now if
you bought the planetary supreme court to escape execution...
