Spectrum Acrostics

In an earlier post, I had written:

"The info sheet that I got was dispatched directly to me from Kim Murphy, and only left Captain Grey's backstory out."

Marion Woods asked me in response:

"Where did she get it from? Was it compiled from official sources?"

Yes.

None other than Gerry Anderson and Sylvia Anderson themselves had drafted the back-stories that Kim sent to me. She could not possibly have gotten more official than THAT!
