Quote of the day
The paper appears to be a facsimile overlaid with occasional typescript. The text is mostly in a sort of "Olde English" you've never seen before. What you read is a combination of incomprehensible gibberish, latinate pseudowords, debased Hebrew and Arabic scripts, and an occasional disquieting phrase in English.
-- The Lurking Horror
Factoid of the day
When you exit an original Macintosh version of an Infocom game, the entire system restarts. It has to -- early versions of the Macintosh operating system were so buggy Infocom couldn't get their software running on it. As a workaround, Infocom's Macintosh games loaded their own bare-bones operating system to run their software, then rebooted to load the real operating system when exiting the game.
