[Bring back exchanges!]

	The words "you are schizophrenic" come up when empire thinks you
are trying to log into it more than once.  This happens most frequently
to me when I try to enter empire when one of my 'bureaucrats' (as I call
the scripts I run periodically using 'at' to update my country) is still
running inside empire.

	One time, however, empire glitched and kept telling me that I
was logged in even though I wasn't.  Even running 'fixup' and making
sure the the nation data file didn't believe I was on didn't help.
(Isn't it amazing what one can do with the root password, the 'su'
command, and the fact the the 'empnat' file in the data directory
doesn't encrypt players passwords? :-)  It finally believed that I
wasn't logged on when all other players had logged out.
