Called Alice with Ed Weber's comment about the contracts. <br> | |||
She had a letter from Arnold Shapiro. No movement at X but they <br> | |||
are holding onto games that they might use. <br> | |||
Later Alice called me. Will called her. He agreed that he wouldn't sign <br> | |||
as it was written. He'll send new paragraphs by mail. He asked if <br> | |||
the rest of the contract is o.k. so that they can go ahead with <br> | |||
<u>INFINITE PLANE</u> & VENTURE CAPITAL. They have a great package. <br> | |||
Alice asked him if they'd be interested in looking at a word game <br> | |||
(<u>RED LETTER</u>). He said he'd chack with Bill Caruson. | |||
Dad and I started translating Lech's game <u>LAP</u> which the <br> | |||
dictionary says is <u>HOLD ON</u>. Got about half wat thru. Looks <br> | |||
interesting. | |||
Decided to change the name <u>POOLWORD</u> to <u>SPELLBINDER</u>. |
