Freelancer Manual easter egg?

Look in the manual that came with the game. On page 40, (the credits page) there are dots near some of the peoples names. Chris Todd, has the only yellow dot near his name. At the bottom of the page, the key lists it as "Murder of Crows".

Arzen.

"A Pride of lions"
"A Murder of Crows"
"A Fart of Zebras"

Very old Smith&Jones sketch.

Maybe he has a "Flock of seagulls" haircut, but they call it "Murder of crows" instead.

Prisma, what is in that screen shot that is interesting?

It looks pretty boring to me- nothing easter egg-ish.

One of the guys you can see in the pic (Tachyon) is a Mod here.

Since "Murder of Crows" was listed at the bottom with ArtSource, VMC Consulting Corporation, and Volt Services Group, I took it to mean he was an employee at a company called "Murder of Crows" that helped them out in some way, so they inluded him in the credits with his company name.
