It's like this....  We've all heard the excuses used to say how we lost this
and we lost that. Perhaps the first poster has indeed gotten a game kit without
the appropriate parts (e.g. no map or reference card). How many of you have 
never had things like this happen? Myself, I received a copy of Framework II
that was missing SYSTEM DISK 2, *AND* the APPS DISK. Explain that one :-)

A simple phone call solved my problem, but perhaps the store where this guy
bought his game doesn't care about return business (i.e. satisfied customers),
and will not exchange the package? Yes, he should then deal with Infocom
directly. But then he doesn't have their address does he, after all, he is
missing the instruction book.

The other side is of course he's guilty all hell of copyright infringement,
but I think I'll choose to trust him and send along Infocom's address so that
he may pursue getting what he has asked for. I'm even tempted to include the
coordinates for Mars to help him along, what the heck...

COMPUTER, RANGE IS 250, THETA IS 120, PHI IS 012

COMPUTER, CONFIRM NEW COURSE
Computers response goes here...

This will help some, but not alot :-)

Their address is:  INFOCOM, Inc.
		   55 Wheeler Street
		   Cambridge, MA. 02138

Sorry, no phone numbers.

Adios los amigos, hastan luegos...
Bye :-)
