moving the splay code out of the handle_func and into the eval func.  more accurate splaying and no longer requires the time.sleep to be used.  first run is not splayed but subsequent run are.

Changed prefix parameter in Yard .__init__ to lanename
Convention is to use the lanename for the prefix.  so its less confusing to call
it lanename instead of prefix.
