There is a control panel here, on which a large metal bolt is mounted. Directly
above the bolt is a small green plastic bubble.

YOU too can make BIG MONEY in the exciting field of PAPER SHUFFLING!
Mr. Anderson of Muddle, Mass. says: "Before I took this course I was a lowly bittwiddler. Now with what I learned at GUE Tech I feel really important and can
obfuscate and confuse with the best."
Dr. Blank had this to say: "Ten short days ago all I could look forward to was adead-end job as a doctor. Now I have a promising future and make really big
Zorkmids."
GUE Tech can't promise these fantastic results to everyone. But when you earn
your degree from GUE Tech, your future will be brighter.
