1) I walked into an antique shop, used 'm' to move onto a pile of
food, used 'e' to eat, was prompted something like "there is
food here, would you like to eat it?"  I said yes, and left the
shop with no problem.  Since I die of starvation in 90% of my
games now (and L's seldom leave bodies), it is a welcome bug.

2) The two ways of getting rid of a cursed item (engraving and
applying pick-axe) have been discussed and fixed.  I wondered
if anyone knew that applying the pick-axe when wielding a
cursed weapon causes the pick-axe to become cursed!  Probably
the pick-axe fix posted will swallow up this bug as well.

3) If you throw things in shops, even toward a wall (no Mimics),
they are put "on your bill".  I have had a lot of those
funny "unpaid obj on bill?" -type messages lately because
I seem to spend a lot of time in shops.  I will post any
particular situations in which they happen if I can reconstruct
them.  I have also found unpaid objects in ghost piles but
this is probably a feature.

4) This is probably not a bug, but rings of poison resistance
do not seem to protect against A's and sickness potions.
In the latter, I get the message "...(but in fact it was
biologically contaminated OJ)" or somesuch, but my strength
still decreases.  Tell me, what does an A do that lowers
strength, if not sting you with poison?
