 > On the other hand, there is a Castle of Dr. Brain directory on this disc
 that only includes resource files and *no interpreter*. So let's not
 pretend any of this is good.

 Odd, it seems to be there on mine:

 > We get a constant, never-ending stream of SCI tickets from people who
 haven't copied over all of their files. It's so depressing.

 It's unfortunately that many of the Sierra CDs have such confusing
 layouts. If it could lead to better Wiki documentation, I would be happy
 to help provide file lists from the ones I have. Not that I think any of
 them - other than the Sierra School House - are that obscure, but it could
 be a start.

 > Sierra shipped an obscure CD with an incomplete EcoQuest that normal
 users will never encounter, but it still works. That sounds like the end
 of the story to me.

 Unfortunate, but fair enough I guess.
