List updates from Sept. 2002 - present

- A "Showbiz Pizza Place" has opened in Dubai. It uses the old "Showbiz"
design, but they appear to be made from a new die. For now I have listed this
at the end of the "showbiz designs"
list.
- 2004 juvenile head: CB, brass
- Spring 2003 - most CEC locations seem to be using the "juvenile head"
design, but locations in Seattle and Portland (and perhaps other places) are
still using the "adult head" design.
- Corrected typo: San Jose tokens were listed as "CA 778", changed
to correct "CA 775"
- Yellow plastic "token" good
for 10 tokens. (lots of these on eBay! not rare)

and "small letters" varieties
- 1998 and 1999 "black chromate" token were listed as zinc, actually
brass (hard to tell under chromate)
