     Well, you are right--the Ballyhoo omission is worse.  And I think 
you can find out from what the hints tell you in the game what you are 
supposed to do.  But, I must take issue with your saying the parchment 
was left out of LTOI--it most certainly came in the package I got.  I 
don't know if it is because it is a later version (possibly) or what, but 
I certainly have the parchment in mine.  Perhaps it was just left out of 
the CD-ROM version?  Did anyone have the disk-based version and find that 
it was not included?  Did anyone else have it?  Oh well...
