Hi there again Mike - I got your mail this afternoon but for some
reason when I replied the mail room here got all upset with your
address and the mail didn't get sent.

So in reply to your mail - The game you call UltimaIV is not
UltimaIV - It is probably one of the other six Ultima games
around.  I have only played IV and III so I can't help with
the question at all.   Sorry.

Anyone else on this group know which U* the sword and the cup
and the Slasher of Veils can be found???

See ya all.

By the way Mike - my mail to you was wonderful and erudite -
not at all like the terse crap above.....

Slasher of veils? That isn't in any of the first 6 Ultimas (I haven't played
U7 yet).
Are you sure this isn't referring to a different series?

What sword? What cup? Are you certain you are talking about Ultima IV? In
Ultima IV there is a wheel, bell, book, candle, horn, runes, stones, but no
special sword or cup to my knowledge (and I finished it a couple times)

I have more information about the French Assistant Professor in
Organic Chem from the University of Montpellier in the south of
France. I reported yesterday that he was looking to exchange jobs
and houses with someone in Australia. It turns out that he will
probably be on sabbatical next year and would like to visit Australia
regardless of whether he gets a job, but would still like to 
exchange houses with someone interested in spending a few months or
so in the south of France.

M. Choukroun is married, has four children and has a house of appropriate
size for such a family. I am also fairly sure that a house swap could
also include use of a car. The family live in Clapiers, a small village
on the outskirts of Montpellier, home of one of Europe's largest universities
and the biggest medical school. IBM France are also in Montpellier.

His address is 485 Chemin des romarins, 34830 Clapiers, France.

I can readily find out more since my daughter is also living in Clapiers
and we are in frequent phone contact, so please email me if you'd like
to know more. I have some aquaintance with the region too.

	Hi! Guys!

	There is a new company, Optus Communication, available in Australia for
overseas telephone service. It apparently cheaper than Telecom. It cost you
$2.93/min to China plus 10 cents for each connection. It has no off-peak rate
to China either.

	Well, if you have only one IDD No. to dial, you'd better stick on
Telecom and join their Family and Friend Plan which cost you $1 extra per
month and you can get 10% discount for the calls.

	I think if many people use Optus rather than Telecom, the later will
finally reduce the price. 

	To use Optus, just simplely dial an extra 1, before you dial 0011. You
don't have to change the service. You will then get a bill from Optus each
month.

	Make your own choice.
