<u>Felicia</u> called and had been trying to get me. Told her that I'd been talking to <u>Claude</u>, so she didn't have to go thru the story again. She confirmed that <u>DEDUCTION</u> and <u>BADDLE</u> were the only tow they were offering back. <u>Rael Cowan</u>, the inventor of <u>BAFFLE</u>, will do the same as Claude about it.

I told her that I had the idea for making <u>DEDUCTION</u> into a puzzle. She said that puzzle-games and two-hand duels are first priority, and it would be better if it _ my idea can be played by 2. It can, by having two room layouts and having the players open windows in turn. Felicia asked if Claude would give me a share, and I said of course.
