	I believe this only works on earlier versions...

	Well, the time is about right.  If you time things ok, you should be
able to get ahold of the treasure, in the past (see Douglas Adam's notes
on verb tense and time travel |-) ).  Now, how are you going to get it back
to the present?  A hint: It is only possible to bring back the ring...

			Good Luck,
