| Hi, author of the article here! Great to see this posted today on

| Question: YS or SU?

| YS forever. SU had some good covertapes, but YS was a way of

| Oh, agreed. But I had the best of both worlds: I liked YS

| But how the mighty have fallen. I'm now reduced to buying
| the Crash annual at Christmas...
