Steve Jackson Games was going to put out a supplement for one of its
game systems based on hackers and cyberspace a few years ago, and the
Secret Service ransacked their offices and took all copies of the
manuscript for the game. I _think_ SJG got the material back after
a lot of time and trouble.

not be at the 2600 club meeting and is not in the organization.)

"Gozar the Traveller... he will come in one of the pre-chosen forms.
During the rectification of the Voldrani, the traveller came as a large
moving Torg! Then during the third reconcilliation of the last of the
meketric supplecants they chose a new form for him--that of a giant
slur! Many shubs and zools knew what it was like to be roasted in the
depths of the slur that day I can tell you!"
