[net.games.hack] Reading scrolls when you are confused

	I don't know what all of the scrolls do when you are confused, but
I can tell you what some of them do:

	1.  Identify:  "You manage to identify this as a scroll of identify."
	2.  Create monster:  You are surrounded by a sea of acid blobs.
	3.  Teleport or Magic Mapping:  You are transported a large random
	    number of levels down.  In either case it is possible for it to
	    appear as if the scroll functioned almost normally.
	4.  Remove curse:  "You feel like you need some help."

	I can't remember any of the others right now.  Hope this helps -- if
you are desperate to keep some real nasty monsters from getting to you, quaff
confusion and read create monster; if you are on the maze and want another
amulet, quaff confusion and read magic mapping or teleport (nobody has tried
this in the maze, however, so I don't know if it would actually put you down
further into another maze (it would be cool to go down a bunch of more levels
so that then you could get a load of mazes and amulets).  Somebody let me
know if you try this.
