     I haven't heard anything about its being out yet, but I am certain 
it will be released--it had a demo on the Zork Anthology CD, in addition 
to a write up in one edition of IE.  I'm not sure how good it will be--I 
think we'll all be wary after Return to Zork (good in its own right, but 
for a Zork, well...), but I will definitely be willing to give it a try.  
(If I may be perfectly frank, I never had that great of an attachment to 
the Planetfall series, so it might be an improvement to me.  I do know 
other people that share this opinion, so it will remain to be seen how 
this game, in particular is accepted by the Infocom alumni of years past.)
     Also, has anyone heard anything of the new Zork game that is in the 
works?  I have just heard rumors--nothing definite.  Please let me know 
if there is some definite news about it.  Thanks to all.
