Hi there.

	I'm a little disturbed by the fact that you don't get your
	XP's or your gold pieces shown on the screen on version
	1.0.2. I saw something about obscuring maxHP and Strength
	by using adjectives instead of numbers.
	Please, don't!
	I mean, how can you play efficiently if you dont know important 
	facts about YOUR OWN CHARACTER? I think the average adventurer
	would know these facts and be able to use them. Why shouldn't
	the average Hack player get the same chance?
	For monsters it's a different matter; it's part of the fun
	to find out just how tough they are.

	Does anybody agree with me on this?
