[Kestrell]

John,

Wow! Those games do sound interesting, I will definitely check out your 
site. I do like puzzle games also--I am a major fan of Boggle, and there is 
a blind-accessible version produced by Spoonville Games of which I am a 
total fan.

The spooky cities of the 1920s game also sounds fabulous; I love that time 
period, and read a lot of weird fiction and ghost stories from that time, 
along with the mysteries of Dorothy Sayers and such.

Kes
