If you have any actual proof confirming these 1984 occurrences from these 'independent' stores it would be great, else I stand by this 100% and I would put these 1984 memories in the same basket as all the kids who remember having a blue bluestreak.
With all due respect to both you and Gok, this discussion is definitely one worth having, but not here. As this is the wrong facts thread, not disputable facts thread.
Feel free to post a link to a more suitable thread for this discussion, as I would definitely like to get to the bottom of it.
