I seem to have just encountered a nasty bug in rogue.  I found a potion, which
when quaffed made me feel light headed.  I also found that I could move through
walls.  Some kind of etherealness?  Anyway, I was still able to attack monsters
so I didn't mind ---- until I used the 'f' command to move forward until I
encountered something.  But, evidently, since I was ethereal(?) I didn't
encounter anything before moving right out of the dungeon, and continuing for-
ever.  My screen began to scroll up as it filled with 'U's.  This went on
for about 4 or 5 minutes until I got bored and hung up.

Is there some way out of this?  What was that potion?  Why didn't my character
die of starvation after 5 minutes of full speed movement?  Why am I posting
this article?
