I was browsing through the hack source today, trying to track down a small bug
(the author assumed int's were 2 bytes; they're 4 bytes on our machine) and I
discovered that if your login name is "david", you get more zoo's (a zoo being
a room full of monsters, it seems to be a variant of shops).  In fact, you're
guaranteed to have a zoo on every level below the sixth.  I find this rather
strange.  The author must have a prejudice against anyone whose login name
is "david" :-).
