I've been an ADDICT of text adventures for years, since I first played
zork around 1982. I only discovered this newsgroup yesterday. You could
have named it something more appropriate like rec.games.adventures or
something and I would have come hear years ago :)
 
Anyway, my question is, did the granite wall have some purpose or secret
hidden within it?? I have wondered this for a bout a decade and have never
met anyone who could answer me in the affirmative or negative. I know the
game so well I can draw the whole map (including maze) from memory, but
this question always plagued me. Anwer me, please, and put my heart to rest.
