Finally we would like to thank the following people
Chris Samuel Who wrote much of the debugging utilities for the original
"Judge Death" Honeywell version of AberMUD
Robert Ash Our Honeywell system manager whose advice on the original
"SYS$MAN" Honeywell version has proved invaluble, and whos comments
that it was not possible started this whole crazy lark
Lorry The ArchWizard
For the idea of SETIN SETOUT ....
Arthur The Button
And other mindless amusements which kept us happily insane
Life
Without which it would be a) impossible and b) pretty pointless
Dave Price Our Unix Support squad, who very kindy conveniently overlooked
Tim Cairnes the huge amounts of filestore that I have been using recently,
Gavin Harrold to develop the game system
And all the many people who have played the game, giving it life and meaning
and whose invaluble comments have helped to improve the game system, and
who have proved beyond doubt that I can't spell suddenely
