This system has now been replaced with one using two 12‐inch laserdisc players. The characteristics and advantages of this “new” system are reviewed, as is the process for developing the laserdisc database.

In this year, 1985 was the Comet seen? Presaged by plague and pestilence of the blood, spreading alarm from the West Coast. In Mexico was earthquake. In Columbia volcanic eruption.

But more mysterious ways will yet be required if governments are to be moved, as the peoples are moved.
