I kid you not when I say that this has happened to me numerous times!  The
little "wizard" on the flying rug leaves a trail of trees in his wake.  This
feat of nature :) also happened once when I was playing the game via
modem.  I followed the rugs path until it "fell off" the end of the
world!(Actually, it hit the end of the screen....) Haven't seen him since.
