Monday 6 February 1967

37th day - 328 days to come


Rcd. [received] a FOCUS order from Sci. Am. From Canada with a delightful letter from: -

[left curly bracket encompassing address] Dr. & Mrs. R. Makepeace 5550 Smith Ave. South Burnaby, B.C., Canada

BB, I, Anne, Claude, & Bob met @ Faye Baker's. Did not come up with much in the way of concrete ideas. I thought of an idea for a STOCK MARKET GAME where contestants push buttons to buy, sell, and change the prices of stocks. Have to think about it. I am to work further on the "treasure hunt" theme using travel and fashion as part of it. Bob Abbott suddenly decided to duck out and leave the project. Faye will get another programmer eventually. Her plan for distributing the profits was - 50% for her and 50% divided between Claude, me, and the programmer.

Claude gave me a copy of Paul's edition of BIG FUNERAL. He also gave me a copy of JUM-PING to look at. The rules are in Spanish, with an Englidh translation. Neither are completely clear.
