  GAMEPLAY NOTES
   ==============

The game is a text adventure and recognizes different words that you type in
to the computer.  The following is a list of some (but not all) of the verbs
that you can use:

look take examine kill talk
open close enter exit push
pull lift move tie

So In order to take an item that's laying on the ground, you can type "take
the [item]". To take everything that can be taken from a scene, type "take
all". The parser is quite smart actually, so you shouldn't have much trouble
once you're used to it. Just pay attention to your surroundings and always
look and examine everything suspicious.

You can also use compass directions to indicate that you want to move in
a given direction. For example, you can type "go north" or "north" or simply
"n" to go north, same with other directions.

Typical directions are N,S,E,W,NE,NW,SE,SW,Up,Down

To save a game, type "save" and the name of the game you want to save.

To load a game, type "restore" and the name of the game you want to load.



Enjoy!

Evidence supporting quantum information processing in animals

              Evidence supporting quantum            information processing in animals                    James A. Donald                    1068 Fulton Av                    Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1505                    USA I show that quantum systems can rapidly solve some problems for which finite state machines require a non- polynomially large time. This class of problems is closely related to the class of problems that animals can solve rapidly and effortlessly, but are intractable for computers by all known algorithms. 1. Introduction      Animals, including very simple animals, can rapidly and effortlessly perceive objects, whereas computers take nonpolynomial time to do this by all...

ARMIES OF CHAOS

                          ARMIES OF CHAOS -      Before anyone proposes more gun control, he or she should know  about a simple, deadly weapon 4 times as powerful as Dirty Harry's  legendary .44 Magnum -- and at least twice as concealable -- that  _can't_ controlled.        This simple, deadly weapon can be made by anyone -- even a  child -- with unpowered hand tools in an hour's time using $5 worth  of materials, most of which are available around the house anyway.   In traditional form it's reusable an unlimited number of times, and  modern plastics have rendered its disposable version electronically  undetectable.  You can clear a room with such a weapon (more of a  hand-held directional grenade than a gun -- sort of a recycleable  Claymore mine) and it's just one of hundreds of similar time-proven  designs. ...
