While with
While with <u>Carl Eisenberg</u> today we went over <u>SPACE STIX</u>  <br>
and <u>FREE FORM</u>. I  took them both but he said that  <br>
they might be interested in <u>FREE FORM</u> sometime in the future  <br>
but not <u>SPACE STIX</u>.  <br>
<u>Riess</u> is interested in building up Hoi Polloi and dropping  <br>
his other accounts. Phil later confirmed this - even to  <br>
dropping Mag-Nif.  <br>
One reason Carl gave for not wanting Phil working on Reiss was  <br>
"because he was doing a lot of work for Gamut of Games". Later I  <br>
asked Phil about what he was working on for them and it is just the  <br>
repackaging for <u>BRIDGETTE</u>. <u>Jed</u> talks about having others submitting  <br>
games but Phil thinks that <u>Joel</u> will want to do it all himself.  <br>
I asked where their money comes from. <u>Waldemar Von Zedtwitz</u>,  <br>
the <u>BRIDGE</u> expert, is a millionaire and is putting up the money, and  <br>
gives them a pretty free hand.  <br>
Carl offered me the copy of <u>AGOG</u> I gave him. I said that if he  <br>
wants to read it he should keep it. He wants.  <br>
 
<u>Earl</u> called while I was out. <u>Claude</u> and Anne are coming to his temporary  <br>
apartment. He invited us, but it was too late by the time I came home.  <br>
