I'm puttering away on a newborn MOO and am right at the code stealing 
phase :-).  I found the generic scheduler, generic climbable and sittable
objects on parc.xerox.com, and am pleased to add them to the db.  What other
interesting objects and code might be out there?  Tools that people use
every day and could not do without, and chrome that everyone finds fun and
exciting... anyone care to offer their list of the ten best MOO code hacks?

	Well, not to step on anybodies toes, but what I've found is that most
code from established servers is good only for reference, and that due to the
chaotic setup of how MOO ends up being, you have 20 different copies of the
same idea.  The best thing to do is to hit each heigharchy, and sift through
all other heigharchies, writing all your own from scratch.  This is what we are
doing on DarkurtheMOO, and it seems to be working fine so far (Richeileu nearly
has all the rooms programmed, including an new and improved polished shiny
generic sittable room :).  Anyhow
