I have this vague memory of someone telling me that Brad told them that
he pointed out that on the box pic that the change was somewhere around
where the schedule piece is. I don't where I heard this or maybe I
dreamed it up. I havn't consulted the box pics or instructions to
reckon a guess to what it could be. Whatever the change is, I don't
think it will be big enough that I won't buy the set.

ps. remember this is just a random memory I have and shouldn't be
regarded as truth.
