Notes[edit]
An ominous note on page 2 of StarDrive Volume 1, Number 1—the rebranded issue following Stardate Volume 3, Number 6, that also attempted to sever ties with FASA—states Clifford VanMeter was "released from his employment [with Reluctant Publishing] as of 11 December, 1987." When asked about it and the circumstances further alluded to in the editorial, he replied to Johannes Heidler in a private mail on 27 November 2007: "Not sure about the StarDrive thing you referenced. I left Reluctant Publishing because they couldn't pay me, simple as that."
