 We could have used a lock from bordeaux threads to manage this portably (though
 more slowly), but I wanted to play around with SBCL's concurrency stuff.
 
+Finally we just need to start up the timer thread:
+
+```lisp
+(defun run (rom-filename)
+  (let ((chip (make-chip)))
+    (setf *c* chip)
+    (load-rom chip rom-filename)
+    (bt:make-thread (curry #'run-cpu chip))
+    (bt:make-thread (curry #'run-timers chip)) ; NEW
+    (chip8.gui.screen::run-gui chip)))
+```
