[Submitter's note: rec.arts.int-fiction is a newsgroup for writers of
interactive fiction, a.k.a. text adventures, in the style of "Zork".
Too often, someone wanders through saying "read my short story" or
"visit my literary web site", when we have no interest in static
fiction. But we save our best efforts for spammers.]
