Rather than drop my precious scare monster then, I decided to use the old run and regenerate formula. My path led me to a room, but when I stepped into the doorway, I found a venus flytrap standing right in front of me. Deciding that it was a good time to drop my scare monster scroll, I was shocked to find that there was "already something there". I lasted a few turns longer. I feel the proverbial AAAAAARRRRRGH! applies. Ken Kaufman (uiucdcs!kaufman) "I thought you said your dog didn't bite." "That's not my dog."
