Yeah, yeah, yeah - well, I've never finished an adventure game in
my life - infact, I've never even read this group before today, but
I downloaded a copy of Curses on Friday and what I wanna know is, how 
do I get _out_ of the Garden and back into the house? 

Or out of the lobby of the museum in Hamburg? And what does the
kiosk attendant want in the Unreal City? Or where do I get a ticket?
Or the seven francs to pay for it?

And what _colour_ daisy-chain do I want. Does it make any difference?

I'M STUCK!!!! And it's driving me crazy. I could strangle that demon 
and his useless information. Help. Please? Pretty please?
