Raiderman, you remember the wars over the sticks and I think Vance Warren was the first to bring them out. Now, I am not sure if Vance and Anthony Burgess were working with each other at that time. I know Anthony was the originator of the rule set but I am not sure if he was utilizing sticks at the time. I know Vance was a strong advocate of them though.

Also, the lateral dials were used with Gotham and Coleco in the 70's but were popularized in Arlington in 1995-96.
Does anybody have pictures or can take pictures of those dials? See, I learned something already. I never knew these were in existence.
