Developer Credits

A message from the game's developers can be found within the newspaper headlines text at 0x4C96:

AND BEST WISHES FROM LEN COPE, BOB MCHUGH, JIM MORROW, STEVE ATLAS, MATT SPALOSS, AND DREW SUNSTEIN

There's a good chance this line can be displayed via a button or building combination, but whatever it is remains a mystery.
