She got them from testing Unit 00.

Other than the fact that it happens to be on the jacket cover of the EVA
Addition CD, no. ^_^

>3.  I've heard it said (rumored?) that eps. 25/26 were to be altered in the

I think it's only a rumor. There are no 2 OVAs.

>4.  What does A.T. Field stand for?  In the opening credits I keep seeing

>Territory/Domain".  Not sure what exactly my question is, but any thoughts?

The AT field is also the name for the imaginary field that people with
autism or/and high egos produce.
