heheh yep know that one, comes in sooo handy if you do something out of 
sequence(though that is less likely in the original levels). even found the 
'hypnotic' easter egg(part of a secret, hard to get to(leagally), but then 
its suposed to be). they did miss a trick(imo) with the 'trap', should've 
had a message(on the order of ' gotcha you wall basher') considering what 
they say in the manual about finding secrets. found a couple other traps of 
the same nature later in the game (one should be careful of what you shoot).
