	...Or of course you can just compare the author credits and see
that Scott worked on both games. ;-) Another interesting bit of trivia
to bring up is the graphic-artist for Task Force was the same person
responsible for the artwork in PBI's "Alien Mind" game (M.C.).

	I think your correct about "Great Western Shootout" (filenames
have the same famillar *.SPR.LZ and *.SND extensions found in Task Force
and Sword of Sodan) but definately not "Laser Force". I believe the author
of Soundsmith worked on that mediocre excess for a game. "Gnarly Golf", OTOH,
may have had Matt C. involved with the graphics again. Matt also did some
very nice graphical screens for one or two pirate group's "cracked-screens"
I recall, too bad few people have seen them. If you look carefully at the
grafitti on the Subway cars in Task Force's New York stage, you'll see
Matt's alias! :)
