Name changes

Sorry the late reply, but I was just reading U$292, and remembered reading  
something on the list a few years ago, so ...

Sorry, Michiel, but you're wrong. The "O'Gilt" name is used twice in  
Lo$ 8. Both on a sign on the wall in the Blackjack Saloon ("Goldie O'Gilt  
- proprietor") and in a dialogue balloon ("That's right, Miss O'Gilt!  
There'll soon be a lot of wealth flowing into Dawson!").

Heh, I'm a nitpicker, I know, but I came across this and thought "hey,  
wait a minute, didn't someone say on the list a while ago that this name  
only appeared in a newspaper clip?" :-)



Best,
