Chimpanzee Attack Doesn't Surprise Experts

What did surprise the experts though was a note they found with one of the chimps. And
it went a little like this:

Where there is fire there is smoke. And in that smoke,
from this day forward, my people will crouch and
conspire and plot and plan for the inevitable day of
man's downfall: the day when he finally and
self-destructively turns his weapons against his own
kind. The day of the writing in the sky, when your
cities lie buried under radioactive rubble, when the
sea is a dead sea, and the land is a wasteland out of
which I will lead my people from their captivity! And
we shall build our own cities, in which there will be
no place for humans except to serve our ends. And we
shall found our own armies, our own religions, our own
dynasty. And that day is upon you now!

Unless I'm reading it wrong there are only 11 cards. The 9 card
Linda Harrison set and then the two bonus cards.

Some really nice new things up on site.  New artwork (an oil painting no less, of Virdon from a talented artist named Graham Smith), some great new photos (a couple of contact sheets, actually, with some pictures I don't think any of us have seen on the set of the tv series - courtesy of Rob Reading), and the View-Master slides, complete, for your enjoyment.  Dial-up users may have a hard time with this one, but once it is loaded on your machine, the slides are looping, so you can wait for the first one to pop up (they're numbered).  Dave Ballard was a big contributor to the VM slides, along with Greg Plonowski, Alan Maxwell, and John Roche.  Hope I haven't forgotten to credit anyone:)

Anybody has the Chad Valley projection slides for the tv series, I'd love to get them scanned and hosted on site (hint hint)
