"Try moving to the east end of the fire escape."

%message	2
"Try moving to the west end of the fire escape."

%message	3
"%m7 and a fence."

%message	4
"Nah. That room needs the fresh air!"

%message	5
"You are on a fire escape.
 A rusty ladder is at one end.
 East of the fire escape is another window, just out of your reach."

%message	6
"%m7, a fence, and something sitting in the east window."

%message	7
"It's a nice little alley, with a trash bin, two windows, a fire escape"

%message	8
"Move closer to the ladder."

%message	9
"(Of course, you can't play the violin now, but you get the idea.)"

%message	10
"Unlock it? From the outside?"

%message	11
"You can't. It's locked from the inside."

%message	12
"Looking inside the west window, you see the room you just left."

%message	13
"Looking at the east window,
 you notice a bottle of pills sitting on the window ledge."

%message	14
"There are two windows high above you.
 The west window by the fire escape has a dim, reddish glow;
 the east window is dark.
 There may be something on the sill of the east window,
 but you can't make it out from down here."

%message	15
"You broke it, didn't you?"

%message	16
"You lean far out over the railing before remembering that
 agility is yet another of your short suits."

%message	17
"With the rope securely holding you to the railing,
 you can reach all the way over to the window.
 NOW, of all times, you notice the window's locked!"

%message	18
"Subtly, you smash the window with your hammer.
 Your future as a second-story man seems quite plausible!"

%message	19
"You got 'em! But what are they?"

%message	20
"You might try reaching over to the window first."

%message	21
"You consider sticking your hand through a solid glass window,
 but realize that if you did, you wouldn't be able to play the violin."

%message	22
"It already is."

%message	23
"What is this; a death wish?"

%message	24
"You already took them. Why do this again?"

%message	25
"Amidst assorted, odoriferous refuse from Lefty's clientel, you discover
 Lefty's old, left-handed hammer."

%message	26
"There's nothing else here worth describing, let alone taking."

%message	27
"\"YUCK!!\""

%message	28
"Unfortunately, you can't see much from out here."

%message	29
"Wow! Does your head hurt!!"

%message	30
"Hey! Where are you?"

%message	31
"After a careful analysis of your surroundings,
 you conclude you are at the bottom of a pile of garbage!"

%message	32
"Move to the front of the trash bin."

%message	33
"There's no way to reach the ladder from down here.
 It's only accessible from above."

%message	34
"You see alleys stretching off to infinity."

%message	35
"The fence is much too tall for you to climb over."

%message	36
"It's not long enough to reach from here."

%message	37
"It's not long enough to reach anywhere,
 but you might want to use it for safety purposes."

%message	38
"Be more specific."

%message	39
"You untie the rope."

%message	40
"How can you do that?"

%message	41
"Using the dull pocket knife, you cut the rope free."

%message	42
"%g176"							[	That's AN idea...

%message	43
"A rickety fire escape, complete with safety ladder,
 is loosely attached to the building.
 A mild, reddish glow comes from the window behind it."

%message	44
"Unfortunately the lid on the trash bin just will not close."

%message	45
"Try as you might, it is impossible to move the trash bin."

%message	46
"The solution is closer to you than that."

%message	47
"There is an old neon sign hanging on the wall that says \"Hotel\"..."

%message	48
"...approximately."

%message	49
"You can't. Even its rusty bolts are too tough for you!"

%message	50
"Not now!"

%message	51
"There may be something in the east window, but from here, you're not sure."

%message	52
"It's a long way to the ground!"

%message	53
"Whee!"

%message	54
"Move closer to the window, if you want to go back in the hooker's room."

%message	55
"You reconsider after noticing the trash bin is behind where you would fall!"

%message	56
"You ain't got no knife!!"

%message	57
"You're currently all tied up!"
