      Ok, everyone, I've been instructed by one said Robin Hood, who 
incidently has been courteously testing this thing on one of his transwarp-
equipped machines, to write a 'witty introduction.'  Now, your guess is as 
good as mineas to what he might mean by a 'witty introduction.'  According to 
mr. webster here, witty is defined as: "having or showing wit; cleverly 
humorous."  Now,all truths told, very little of what I say is ever considered 
to have or show wit, and the only thing I've ever seen that might be called 
cleverly humorous would have to be some of Robin Hood's programming attempts 
for the ForbiddenZone.  All such formalities aside, I've also been instructed 
to comment on the problem posed by the urchin's tendancy not to stay put 
(you'll see what I mean later) so just keep this in mind.  If you've made a 
typo at any point inexecuting this solve, the urchin may not be where Robin 
Hood and I found him.In this case, be ABSOLUTELY sure that you do not drop an 
object that you willneed later in the same room as the urchin.  If you do, you 
may not see it everagain.  Almost enough.  There's only one more thing I've 
gotta say to ya'll.  What pleasure do people derive from solving these things 
this way?  I'm certain it's exciting in the same vague way as cheating at 
AD&D.  I'll never know.Quite enough said.  On with the solve...                                      
Dr. No

At this point, you will have to go and find the urchin.  He's usually around
in the basements somewhere. Once you find him, you have to [Show Hand To

the solve.
