STOP AND GIVE YOU AN AD BROCHURE.  IF HE DOES, JUST DROP IT AS IT'S JUST
INFOCOM'S TRADITIONAL TRADEMARK.

YOU SHOULD NOW BE IN THE UPPER ELEVATOR WHERE YOU NEED TO: 'SLIDE UPPER CARD

MOVES, LIKE USING 'L' CONTINUOUSLY) UNTIL THE ELEVATOR DOOR OPENS UP.  THEN:

GET IN BED, SLEEP (YOU MAY NEED TO WAIT A MOVE OR TWO).

*** NOW, IN THE EARLY VERSION, THERE'S A BUG THAT TAKES ALL OF THE ITEMS THAT
YOU AREN'T WEARING AND PUTS THEM IN THE ROOM OUTSIDE YOUR BED. THEY ALSO AREN'T
VISIBLE UNLESS YOU 'LOOK' OR GO OUT OF THE ROOM AND RE-ENTER.  IF YOU FIND
YOU'RE MISSING YOUR ACCESS CARDS, THEY ARE RIGHT THERE IN THE ROOM NEXT TO THE
BUNK. O.K., NOW ON TO THE OTHER COMPLEX!!! (YOU MIGHT WANT TO SAVE THE GAME
AGAIN!)

*** NOW, THE NEXT THING YOU NEED IS THE LOWER ELEVATOR ACCESS CARD.  FLOYD HAS
IT, BUT THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT FROM HIM IS TO BE IN THE UPPER ELEVATOR WITH HIM
AND KEEP SAYING ' SLIDE UPPER CARD THROUGH SLOT'.

POSITION A ND DECELERATES THE SHUTTLE WHEN IN THE DOWN POSITION.  TO ACTIVATE
THE CONTROLS, INPUT SLIDE SHUTTLE CARD THROUGH SLOT, DROP SHUTTLE CARD, PUSH
LEVER UP.

*** O.K.  NOW, KEEP HITTING 'L' AND  YO U'LL NOTICE YOUR SPEED INCREASING EACH
TIME IN INCREMENTS OF 5.  KEEP HITTING 'L' UNTIL YOUR SPEED HITS 55 MPH. (NEVER
MIND THE SIGN YOU SEE).  THEN, 'PULL LEVER DOWN'.  IT WILL NOW BE IN THE
MIDDLE POSITION AND YOU WILL BE STEADY AT 55 MPH. SOON YOU WILL SEE A SIGN
MARKING  T HE HALFWAY POINT. WHEN YOU SEE IT, HIT 'L' ONE MORE TIME, THEN INPUT
' PULL LEVER DOWN'.  THE SHUTTLE WILL DECELERATE (IGNORE THE SPEED LIMIT SIGNS)
AND SHOULD STOP RIGHT WHEN YOU'VE ENTERED THE LAWANDA STAION!

    (THIS IS ANOTHER GOOD TIME TO SAVE THE GAME!)

*** O.K., NOW TO FINISH FIXING THE REST OF THE SYSTEMS AND FINISH THE GAME. NOTE
>>> SOMETIME BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF THE GAME (DEPENDING UPON HOW LONG IT
TOOK FLOYD TO GIVE YOU THE LOWER CARD), YOU WILL GET HUNGRY.  WHEN YOU DO, JUST
