	Two question:

		When hallucinating, what scroll have you just
		read when "You feel in touch with the Univer-
		sal Oneness." ?
							    _
		Also, is there any  relationship to  how many
		hitpoints your maximum increases and how many
		hitpoint your character has left when you gr-
		aduate to a new level ?
							    _
		i.e. if you have 4(19) and pop up to level 2,
		     will you  get fewer  hitpoints  added to 
		     your maximum  than you might if you had, 
		     say, 15(19) ?

	I believe the number of HP granted to you when changing levels
is 1d10 or something like that; it certainly *seems* to be a r.v. of
constant density between 1 and 10.

	Y'know, this is a useful thing to remember; if you're fighting two
monsters, and you've got almost enough points to kick a level, you may
want to think very hard about which one to try to kill first; if you kill
the wimpier one, the remaining one might just nail you...but if you kill the
tough one, the resulting exp. points might kick you a level, and restore
some of your HP; this may make it easier to kill the wimp.  'course, you'll
probably miss either one repeatedly and get killed...:-)
