Atari-Jess #1 Posted February 10, 2005 Looks like Tramiel really does own the swordquest sword. However, the blade is stainless steel and not platinum. I added the bit about the sword in his wikipedia article a few months ago and apparently there are a few people who have spoken to him and his family and have adjusted and corrected and added on to what I originally wrote. I certainly would like to see a photograph of tramiel and the sword. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+-^CrossBow^- #8 Posted February 10, 2005 So...He has the Philospher's Stone and Waterworld crown as well? I supposed I am happy they weren't liquidated literally for their value to help offset the debt that the Tramiel's inherited from Warner. But at the same time, I really wish that they had gone to a more publicly viewable location for all to see. Okay..okay...I just want them for myself...but don't we all?

Atari-Jess #9 Posted February 10, 2005 the paragraph at the bottom was originally written by me. It has changed since I wrote it. What I am pointing out is the HISTORY of the article, note the comments: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...&action=history If you read, you'll see that people mention they know him or have spoken to his grandson and have corrected/added on to my original paragraph.

Thomas Jentzsch #11 Posted February 11, 2005 the paragraph at the bottom was originally written by me. It has changed since I wrote it. Maury Markowitz, I suppose? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #12 Posted February 11, 2005 Check again Thomas. This is me adding the new paragraph: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...2&oldid=1718294 This is Maury Markowitz re-writing the article but leaving my paragraph intact: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...3&oldid=4877802 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
