I think 15 years ago some of us *were* still running a Plus. But I
suppose I could shave a couple of ticks off my delay.
As far as the confusion goes, blame the author. That's how he wrote it.
Perhaps he meant to make a longer version some day. There are no other
buttons or instructions on the stack, what you see is what he uploaded.
If you look closer, you'll notice there are no spaces in the text
either: "See TheShortMovie".
I did warn you most of the uploads wouldn't pass muster. :)
We loved those kids. Mostly.
