 Yeah, i use fortune multiple times a day, and play rogue and tetris when
i trapped with out anything else entertaining to do.

 Coincidentally, two days ago, i accidentally discovered there's some
cheat stuff in rogue.  I didn't figure out how to enter the cheat
password, but it was an entertaining hour or two diversion reading man
pages and trying to figure out what some of the secret "characters" are.
