Default Was there a playable demo of Brian Moriarty's The Dig?

Your first instinct would be to say "Of course not!" but I'm not so sure.

I have a contact who tells me that LEC put a demo of Moriarty's The Dig in an issue of a CD-ROM demo magazine around 1993-94 (quite possibly it was the US edition of CD-ROM Today, although my source was unsure). The demo featured the asteroid sequence and the planting of the nuclear devices (unlike the final demo, which is confined to the alien plateau, just after the crew are transported to the planet). Plus it had those funky spacesuits with the colored vests. Unfortunately, my informant no longer possesses a copy of this demo.

If anyone has any clues that could lead to tracking this down, post them here! Even more welcome, though, would be the demo files themselves.
