Why?  It's not a Pygame problem.  It's a client problem.  You need a
client developer, not a Pygame developer.

The problem is well known since August 2007 (#1187736408 or
da96e4e02f4248dbc0b94592ab25d1ee9bbd029b), and does not have a simple
fix.

See bug reference:

Advise the user to use a screen resolution with a vertical space of at
least 1000 pixels.  If the computer is too old, throw it away, the power
it uses is hurting the planet.

The user has declined to respond directly to my private mails, and I'm
not sure why.

An alternate workaround might be to change the alignment of the
ReportSprite, by changing the __init__ method from this:

	self.rect = self.image.get_rect(centerx=500, bottom=999)

to this:

	self.rect = self.image.get_rect(centerx=500, top=100)
