I remember seeing an ad in a gaming magazine sold in the gaming store
at the local mall - i.e. the place that sells Dungeons & Dragons stuff,
Chess, etc.  Also some of the _bigger_ newsstands might have it.

Or go to the TRW swap meet, find an old copy of Byte, or Kilobaud, and
just maybe scott adams hasn't moved (but that's a long shot).

Scott is still writing games - you just have to look for the ads where
they do the most good, and that means gaming magazines.
