[net.games.rogue] Good use for a bad thing...

[ Everything looks SO boring now! ]

I was trying out potions the other day, and found a potion of hallucination
just as I was entering Ice Monster Territory by drinking it.  At that point
I thought it would not be long before I needed my thermal armor 8-).  But,
Lo and Behold, when I drank a potion of poison, everything became BORING!

There is a good use for poison after all 8-).

But note that this doesn't work if you're wearing a ring of sustain strength.
