[Laser] Error in G0MRF receiver circuit?

Hi,
while waiting for my ChinaCheeapo laser keychain pointers and OPT202
photodiodes, I'm preparing to build the receiver.
I spotted G0MRF's circuits, that should support OPT202:
http://www.g0mrf.freeserve.co.uk/laser301.htm
However, comparing the "single-supply" figure on the OPT202 datasheet
with the circuit shown on that page, something puzzles me.
The zener diode on the datasheet has a resistor coming from +Vcc, while
the resistor is missing on MRF circuit. I tend to think that the
resistor slipped from MRF's circuit, and datasheet is correct (also
according to my knowledge of how zeners work).
Anyone can comment?
