Alan doesn't have net access.  Here is his address:

Midgard USA, Inc.
PO Box 141171
Dallas, TX 75214-1171
(214) 324-0914

It's odd that they didn't receive anything.  Alan will set things
straight.

The program has a good number of areas that are not automated.  The
program subtracts your movement points and then the GM has to do the
rest.  Zan will be automating the rest of the system and enhancing the
game.  Things are moving along at a *very* good pace.  With Alan
focusing on processing, Zan can focus on the programming side.  It
will definitely be all uphill, but I think that Midgard is worth the
effort.
