1) Zork Rules!
2) Antharia Jack was played by Dirk Benedict, better known for his roles on 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'The A-Team' (Templeton 'Faceman' Peck)
3) Why do people keep saying that the adventure genre is dead? Played 'The Longest Journey' lately? Granted, there's scant pickings in this area, but good ones are being made.
4) Zork Rules!
5) I would kill for some Flatheadia fudge
6) I ain't afraid of no Grue
7) I have spent many hours exploring Zork, and I encourage everyone else out there to as well.

Glad you liked it.
Seriously, though, I wish that I could've put in more, such as the names of all of the actors in all the Zork games, all the White House locations, etc., but there were already complaints about it being too long.
Anyway, people keep saying that the Adventure Genre is dead mainly because of the fact that there is little market left for it (the closest thing you get these days are RPGs). But I think that as long as things like the Interactive Fiction community on the Internet keep interested, there's going to be an adventure revival in a decade or so.
Key: Complain about this post
