I freely grant that I derive pleasure from very odd things, but reading this paragraph is likely to be the most enjoyable thing I do today. Thank you. :-) (And before anyone comments: yes, I agree - I derive pleasure from very *few* things too, I'm depressive. But 'this has been one of them'.) I apologise for the cross-post, but I don't see posts from you in other threads in comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.adventure, so you're presumably posting to one of the other groups. On that assumption, I would have e-mailed my comment instead, except that your e-mail address is invalid. :-) Arian -- "Carpe DM: Seize the Dungeon Master"
