  This is one of mine too, when I first started playing with existing mud
bases, I was amazed at the amount of information that they had implemented,
but only referenced in one or two instances. After taking the trouble to 
put that information in, the checking and manipulation of it is a piece of
cake. 

  I think this is mainly caused by poor communication between coders and
the lack of treating objects as generically as possible.
