   Mike,   
   I read Popular Electronics and other magazines of that type inthe 1970's.   
   One magazine issue had a large Star image on the cover with the BASIC code for   
   TRS-80.   
   I went to a Radio Shack store one evening and typed in the program on the   
   TRS-80 demo.   
   After running it, it didn't work so I did a LIST and saw I had entered it   
   correctly.   
   I changed one entry and got the program working as it should    
      
   I wrote the publisher and told them their code had a mistake and I included the   
   correction I made.
