	"I hung around for about 1000 moves (till I was out of food)
	waiting for the dog to wake up before I gave up on him.  The
	shopkeeper also remained asleep."

You can wake up your dog by wielding nothing and hitting her.

	"I find that a wand of polymorph can transform five wands if
	they are lined up in a row and you zap down the line."

You can also pile all the wands in the same square.  You can polymorph
things other than wands, like weapons (all those unused darts and
arrows), rings (lose that ring of hunger), scrolls (curse weapon), and
potions.  An object will always changed to another object (possibly the
same) of that class, with the interesting exception that rocks will
change to gems.
