I love this one! It's a great 5-piece starter kit. You'll note that the Living Plasma is labeled as packet "3". These days, it is the Growth Food that is labeled as packet "3". This kit also contains an older version of the Official Sea-Monkey® Handbook.

But what I really love about this kit is contained on the backside of the pakaging. It contains a tongue-in-cheek reprint from a fictional newspaper called the "Daily World Sun". What I find most amusing about this is that it credits the creation of Sea-Monkeys® to a Dr. George Flam. We all know that Harold Von Braunhut is the true creator, but this fictional news story states otherwise.

I know, I know... the text is too small for you to read! Fear not... just look below and you'll see that I've included the fictional story from the Daily World Sun. Read and enjoy!

SEA-MONKEYS® - A NEW FORM OF LIFE, FOUND IN CRYSTALS!
By Ben Harvey Special to the Daily World Sun

NEW YORK, N.Y., March 31 - The historic creation of a totally new kind of life from a test-tube was demonstrated here before 4,500 scientists attending the 37th Conference of the Biological Research Society. Strange, living, simian-tailed animals named Sea-Monkeys®, were produced from crystals immersed in water less than a minute by Dr. George Flam, whose amazing discovery stunned delegates at the annual meeting.

NOBEL PRIZE IN HIS FUTURE?

"As you have just seen?, said Dr. Flam, the tall, youthful looking bio-chemist from Tennessee, "by combining my crystals with water, anyone, even a child, can instantly create live Sea-Monkeys®, and raise them to maturity". He went on to describe the ten years of research that finally resulted in the perfection of his formula.

WASHINGTON, D.C., April 1 - In a surprise announcement from the Green Room, Peyton Wilmot, Secretary of Wealth, Happiness and Education (WHEE), stated, "Sea-Monkeys® are safe and recommended as pets by the newly formed Commission. In fact", he said, "confidentially, even the President's are doing just fine. They need so little care or space they will make ideal pets. From now on, all men, women, and children, shut-ins, military personnel and animal lovers can enjoy, as does the President, the antics of these frolicking, adorable 'water clowns'. As a Nation, we hoped for something to come along and replace TV to get our minds off of our troubles. And it seems like Providence has answered our call again". To which this reporter can only add, "Amen".
