From: 1/5/00 4:49 PM Subject: NEW Letter List for MAZE (You're probably getting tired of them)To: John Bailey CC: Alexander Boroson , Carl Muckenhoupt , nwdave@cyborganic.com, Steven Marsh , chris@questrel.com Ok, following the theory that there are two letters clears up some things and complicates others. I've revised my earlier list below. I haven't include any notes or words from the text, just the objects I could find, many of which are guesses or distant stretches. Room 1: Room 2: B and C B: bench, broom, bear, box, banners, bare brick, boards. C: cardboard, cutouts, chair, crescent moon, Crusade. Room 3: R and S R: radiator, ripples (in water), reflection (everything in the room). S: stick figure, Sphinx, scroll, sun, stop sign, steam heater. Room 4: H and ? H: heavens, hands, hatched, hammer, holes Room 5: C and ? C: Camellia, castle, carpets Room 6: P and ? P: pupil, paper, pillar, post Room 7: Unsure. See previous message. (L,M,P,R) Room 8: B and ? (probably S or C) B: bare bulb, barber pole, bumbershoot, bowl, bowling pin, broad grin S/C: smile, stethoscope, sign, S / candlestick, candle, clown Room 9: A and B A: angel, apple, armor, astra, Arabia B: blind mouse, burrow, Bethlehem, beards (finally, a meaning for those three men!) Room 10: B and V B: bed, bumbershoot, box, ballerina V: Victorian bed, volcano, valise, vaudeville performer Room 11: B and P B: bell, button, bolts, boards P: please, push-button, pen, pin, pointer finger Room 12: Unsure Room 13: S and ?

See previous message (C, F,M) Room 19: Unsure. See previous message (A,P,S) Room 20: A and T A: armchair, arrow, anti-macassar (the little doily on the back of the armchair; heh, I know my victorian furniture), almanac (the papers near the chair; yes, this is a stretch) T: Tower, (a Tarot card), turret, thunder, telephone, table, tortoise (turtle) a Turk in a turban. Room 21: C and T C: caduceus, crane, crescent wrench T: topiary, trees Room 22: Ok, I'm confused on this. One option MIGHT be P (pitchfork, pigtail, pendant lamp, pedestal) but all those objects are rather stretching it. How about T? The object near center looks more like a trident than a pitchfork and the second picture is more likely just a tail than a pigtail. Oh, and there are tassels hanging from lamp and the bench. So T then... but what else? Room 23: S and ? S: scroll, shattered glass, sun, storm, stars, shoes, stone tablets, six, seven Room 24: The Dark Room Room 25: F and ?
