(an instance of generic note made by Calkins)

     A sign titled: "DESCRIPTIONS AND GENDER". Type "read sign".

Go to location of this object, Crystal Cave.
     If you typed "look caveman", you saw how another player might appear.  To look at 
yourself, type "look me".  All objects, including players, have a DESCRIPTION which 
can be set with the "@describe" command.  In addition to a description, players have 
a GENDER, which can be set with the "@gender" command.  For example, the caveman 
here must have typed:
     
             @gender male
             @describe me as "You see a short, stout man ...
     
     The description is a single long line, which will be displayed as a paragraph.  For 
more complex descriptions, see 'help @notedit'.
