    Leaping Michaels -  A 4 level minor suit jump or skip bid in 
    opponents' preemptive bid to show a game forcing auction with a two-suited 
    hand.  If the jump suit is was not bid by an opponent, the jump shows 
    length in the suit bid and the opposite major.  If the suit was a cuebid of opponents' minor, the jump shows both majors.
