Thanks.. Yeah Hang-man is a good idea.  I played it a bunch on BoycoT
too.  I was also thinking about a version of Hamurabi (aka Kingdom on
the //e).

No doubt about the telnet/ppp for the //e.  It's something I still
want to work on.  Getting a functional tcp/ip stack + PPP on a //e
using a 1200 baud modem is a real challenge.  Not sure if it could
even do 2400 baud.  Will have to see about that.
