Contributors
Since I first posted my adventure list on rec.games.int-fiction, I
have gotten feedback from an incredible number of people. I will make
no attempt to list everyone who has contributed here, just a few of
the major contributors. To all of you who have sent me information but
aren't listed below: Thanks! To all of you who are listed here:
Thanks even more! Without all of you, this list would be far from as
complete as it is now.

in 1993 and since then it advanced to the most valuable ressource
