MUCH ADO ABOUT SHAKESPEARE was created during 1990 and 1991. During that
period of time I was growing an intra-spinal-cord tumor. I finished it
the night before my entry into the hospital for spinal cord surgery the next
morning. On that day, my wife walked from the hospital to a nearby postal
service center and sent all six disks to Roger Wagner Publishing. Roger was
beginning to collect stacks created by HyperStudio users and Steven Allen
was working with him to make selections. A short time after I was dismissed
from the hospital, Steven Allen called me and we agreed upon $29.95 as the
price of the finished product. During the next few months, v2.0 of MUCH
ADO ABOUT SHAKESPEARE was finished and was advertised in the Roger Wagner
Publishing Company catalog at $29.95.
This is an improvement over those early versions. Because my immune system
continued to deteriorate, I found that I was sick more days per month than
well. Finally, I faced the fact that I could no longer work productively
and was disabled. As a hobby for those very few days in some months when
my energy level allowed me to dabble with the IIgs, I finished v3.11 of
MUCH ADO ABOUT SHAKESPEARE.
MUCH ADO ABOUT SHAKESPEARE is not in the "Public Domain" and it may not be
copied and given to another.
It is copyrighted by Larry B. McEwen, and may not be legally used unless
$25.00 has been sent to the national office of:
Immune Deficiency Foundation
MUCH ADO ABOUT SHAKESPEARE
3565 Ellicott Mills Drive, Unit B2
Ellicott City, MD, USA, 21043
Please do this within two to three weeks.
This is a good cause and we need help. The first case of Primary Immune
Deficiency Disease which caught the public's eye and ear was the case of the
"Houston Bubble Boy", a boy who lived in 1950's Texas. His story was
made into a movie. A very young John Travolta starred as the "Bubble Boy"
whose short life was contained within that plastic sterile environment.
The Primary Immune Deficiency Diseases do not receive the attention that
the HIV "AIDS" cases do. Our cases do not get the headlines, and they do
not get the political attention or the budgetary appropriations.
If you wish to have a Home.Stack without the appeal, I will send you one if
you will send me a copy of your receipt from the IDF and your name and
address.
Thank you for your help and kind consideration. Thank you!

Some notes to help you get MUCH ADO ABOUT SHAKESPEARE up and running.
I. If you intend to arrange the files on 3.5 inch disks:
1. MAKE CERTAIN YOU ARE USING GSOS V.6.01.
2. Format six 3.5 inch 800K disks, naming each /Shakespeare.V.1/,
/Shakespeare.V.2/, /Shakespeare.V.3/, /Shakespeare.V.4/.
/Shakespeare.V.5/, /Shakespeare.V.6/.
3. The GSOS files must be from your GSOS 6.01 System master disks. We
lowly ones may not send Apple GSOS System Files to an online
service for we are not licensed to do so. Lotsa bucks!
4. The fonts used must remain named as they appear below. These have
been specially created for Much Ado About Shakespeare.
5. Be certain to name each of the 6 disk directories as they are named
below; e.g., /Shakespeare.V.1/, /Shakespeare.V.2/, etc.
6. DO NOT CHANGE THE NAMES OF ANY OF THE TYPE "HMD" FILES. THESE ARE
THE HYPERSTUDIO STACKS.
II. If you intend to run Much Ado About Shakespeare from a hard drive:
1. MAKE CERTAIN YOU ARE USING GSOS V.6.01.
2. Create a subdirectory on your hard disk named -- /Shakespeare/.
3. Copy the fonts from Shakespeare.V.1 to the /FONTS/ Subdirectory on
your boot volume. DO NOT RENAME ANY FONT FILES.
4. Make certain your boot volume subdirectory /TOOLS/ has all of tools
listed below on disk directory /Shakespeare/System/TOOLS/.
5. Copy the MAAS.ICONS to your /ICON/ Subdirectory on your boot volume.
6. Place all Hyperstudio files (type HMD) within the subdirectory you
created and named /Shakespeare/ on your hard disk volume.
7. Place the S16 files below within the subdirectory /Shakespeare/.
