Dear Mr Issacs,
Further to your letter to me dated 13/4/94, I was most
intrigued to hear that you had found several of the hidden messages on
the subscribers disk. I hadn't exactly hidden them out of the way, but
they aren't really the sort of thingyou bump into casually. Anyway, we do
have a model of the Enterprise, but it is too big to fit onto the disk, as
it's over 1 Mb in size. It also needs around 10Mb of memory to
render, so I don't think that many of our readrers would be able to use
it.
You mentioned including the names and addresses of people who have
found the hidden message somewhere. Well, I've only had a handful of
replies, so obviously most people aren't finding it.
The ROTAS
OPERA
TENET
AREPO
SATOR square featured in IFF form on one disk is a very old
inscription found in many places. Some hold that it has magical
properties, and that there are a variety of numerical pattern hidden
within the letters. Others believe it to be a lovers charm, but who knows
what it really is? Anyway, it's quite a fun thing, so I decided to stick
it on.
Who is Dan? Dan is Dan Slingsby, Ex-editor of CU Amiga and now editor of
PC Format. We found out that he had subscribed to AF, so I decided to send
him a little message.
Cheers,
Richard Baguley
