When you get a few minutes, try logging on to DaMOO and prepping for our
                   MOO discussion--

                   1:  To log on, use the Cup o' Mud link on the left hand side of the DaMOO
                   homepage.

                   2:  You will log on in the Welcome room.  Read the instructions on the
                   screen-- some of the lines will scroll off; use the arrows on the right
                   side of the screen to move up and down and read all of the text.

                   3:  When you have finished reading the screen instructions, try moving
                   around the MOO.  To go from the Welcome room to the pub, for instance, you
                   would first type the command: out .   This will take you to the West
                   Hallway.  The last line on each screen will tell you the obvious exits--
                   to move in the MOO, type the exit you want to take.  So, from the West
                   Hallway, I will type: Left to get to the Pub.

                   4:  To see where other people are, type @who

                   5:  To join other people, type @join

                   6:  To talk to other people, type a quotation mark and then whatever you
                   want to say.  For example, I have to type "How are you?  in order to have
                   the other people in my room read: lamia says: How are you? (Of course, hit
                   the enter key after each command/talk entry.)

                   7:  Once you have explored a bit, go to our rooms.  To get there, type @go
                   #3375   This will take you to The New Millenium.

                   8:  There are robots, notes, etc.  in each of the rooms I have made for
                   us.  Take a look at our rooms-- The Writer's Realm, the En-Gendering, and
                   The Horizon--  Explore, see how you like this, and think about using this in your writing process.
