Use "a" to open it.  You can then put something in (you will be prompted).  The
box turns out to be an ice chest.

Somebody mentioned that you can't shoplift with your icebox (by putting things
in it and walking out of the store). Too bad.

No, but you can sell it to the shopkeeper for big bucks (~$650 or so)
Also it makes a nice weapon -- better than bare hands anyway.
And it doesn't corrode (no non-weapons do) when you fight acid blobs.
And it keeps dead bats fresh for Rover.

I won with a Speleologist by the way, mostly because I found the
remains of an old Wizard character of mine -- the Wizard's hoard
included two wands of wishing.  I wished for 3 scrolls of genocide
twice (thank you, Brian), a ring of teleport control, and a +3 crysknife.

How did my W die carrying such goodies?  He forgot the hacker's creed:

		ALWAYS GENOCIDE COCKATRICES!!

(well, it's my hacker's creed anyway)

I don't know how true this is, but some friends of mine say that wielding
the box does some nasty damage to the baddies!
I have yet to try this, but I don't play Speliologists (sp?) very often.
