Come on guys. You had plenty of warning (by reading the posters comments at the beginning of each part) that the article contained something that might be in bad taste. I mean, really, he called it ASTROTIT! It's not like this just showed up on your terminal screen. You had to save two files, trim headers and footers off of each, concatenate them together, uudecode them, download the resultant arc file to your PC, and *THEN* unarchive the game. Don't tell my you didn't read the README first? I rest my case. Quit complaining. - paul Look, Martha! This is disgusting!
