QUESTION:
Description
===========
Write a C++ program that will read a sequence of character from stdin
and determine if the sequence is a palindrome.  Your palindrome test
should be case insensitive and should ignore non alpha-numeric
characters.

Sample Output
=============
Enter the sequence of characters:
The last word in the sequence must be terminated with a period (.)
Nurses run.
The sequence is a palindrome.

Enter the sequence of characters:
The last word in the sequence must be terminated with a period (.)
Nurses ru.
The sequence is NOT a palindrome.

Assumptions/Restriction  
========================
The sequence is composed of words.  The last word in the sequence is
terminated with a period (.) The maximum length of a word is 79.  The
maximum number of alpha-numeric characters in the sequence is 79.
You must use the CString class to store and manipulate strings.
