Bug Frustration
Toad Terrific, I can empathise with you at this point.  I had a game going
for about a week with everything going just right.  I picked up activities
today on level 20, and having previously genocided the dreaded U's I
proceeded to locate and capture the objective on level 27.  Feeling invincible
(and, perhaps, feeling no pain as well), I decided to risk a further penetration .
[That should have said level 26 above].  I reached 27, and after exploring
same, I attempted to descend the stairway to 28.  And at precisely that moment,
biff decided to tell me about my new mail arriving!  Then the screen hung up
and all I could do was to quit.  I tried stopping and restarting, saving, etc.,
but I could do nothing.  The program would only process interrupts, so I
was forced to post a score of 8000+ as a quitter on level 28.

       Any comments on this bugs, ladies and gentlemen?
