	There are times, even, in rogue, where you wish
	something, anything or everything would happen,
	just to save you from boredom and frustration
	brought on by forgettfulness:

Sometime last summer (version 3.6), someone came up to
me to show me a game in which they were 'hung'. Sure enough,
he was trapped in a doorway, with rust monsters to either side.
But, he said, 'i have this cool sword', and he proceeded to smack
at a rust monster about twenty times without a hit. Frustrating.

We finally (after a while), got around to dooing an inventory. He
had been banging away for days with armor, not weapon. Frustrating
embarrassing.......
