Subject: RTZ copy protection

Better ways of protecting products, like Return to Zork's quiz?

No relevance to this post other than reading it brought a smile to my face;
if I had had any idea when I started writing the Encyclopedia that so many
of those quizzes were based on that it would one day turn into copy protection
for a graphics Zork game, I probably wouldn't have written it...

Thankfully for my Encyclopedia and your game, I didn't know it, and it all
turned out all right... Speaking of Zork products, is Peter Spear's book
EVER going to be released?
