I first played colossal cave on a mainframe. Later I played Zork on my
first PC (not my first computer; that was a Sinclair ZX-80). I solved
neither colossal cave nor Zork. Many hours of fun, though! About 10
years ago I managed to wrangle the email address xyzzy at plover.com which
I kept for many years. Eventually I gave it up after it became too
spam-laden. :(
