When I was 12, the pinnacle of hi-tech Sci Fi was Crichton's "The Andromeda Strain". And this was the key to it all- the arming device of the nuclear bomb that was meant to blow our heroes away if the alien bug got out.One of the technical consultants on that film was Bill Koselka. Then, he worked at JPL and did things like shot lasers at butcher's meat to show the art department what a laser burn would look like.
Anyway, these days Bill works at IV&V and he's been bragging for months about his role in the film. I didn't believe it- I wanted proof. So, to secure his place in history, Bill obliged. "The arming device for a fictional nuclear weapon good enough for you?" he asked.

I have the red anodized "odd man" key. They were all give-aways at the movie's premiere.
Universal Studios had thos for sale at the souvenier shop I wanted to get back then but I was too young and no spending change to get one. I would appreciate any help in aquiring a key or at least the dimentions of the key to have one made.
