OK, I'm embarrased to be stuck on Return to Zork.  My biggest
aggravation:  what do I do with the bonding plant?  The only signs are
at the Cliffs of Depression and below at Chuckles.  It won't grow
there.  I can't burn it, eat it, water it, plant it or anything else.
 
Once inside Chuckles, I assume I'll either find a miner's hat or
another clue to where to find the minor's hat.  The hat will allow me
to use the sword w/ the Troll.
 
Currently outstanding:
    Haven't used the coin w/ a boat on it.
    Haven't found oil/gas for my boat ride.
    Can't get in the silo yet.
    Still in the dark w/ the Troll.
    Vultures still killing me.
    Don't know what to do with the mice or dead rats.
    Blew the whistle, fed Vultures the meat, killed the rats,
       can't feed the Vultures the dead rats.

 Now the world has gone to bed,   Now I lay me down to sleep,
 Darkness won't engulf my head,   Try to count electric sheep,
 I can see by infrared,           Sweet dream wishes you can keep,
 How I hate the night.            How I hate the night.
