But it took people 18 years to get from Moon landing to DM. :wink: No, seriously - if you imagine the technology they had for that! It's like in old sci-fi books where people were travelling to other galaxies and on the spaceships the scientist were running around in white coats with slide rules in their hands; later, the computers had a few colour bulbs on the fronts doing *peep* *boop* *peep* *boop*. :o
Finally playing and immensely enjoying the awesome Thimbleweed Park-a-reno!
