[QuadList] What's wrong with this ad contest

[Don Norwood]

Hi Chris:

I think James is right.  The machine is actually in Fast Forward.  It may be 
easier to see some of this in my original than in the scan, but I believe 
the art department had to "white out" the FF button and add the yellow color 
to the Play and Audio Normal buttons.  Either that or there's something very 
wrong with the capstan servo!
