(...) Whaa?--seriously? That's bizarre! The back side of my copy of 0013 shows the Space three-pack (red/yellow/white) as 0015, and it shows the Town three- pack as 0011. What's the copyright date shown on yours? Mine says (c)1978. --Todd (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.admin.database)
