-------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 I assume this is a bug in the original game, but I'm reporting it here
 anyway.

 The "GET ALL" command in Time Zone, while convenient, can pick up objects
 it shouldn't. Here's one easy test case I found. From the beginning of the
 game:

 N. N. GO MACHINE. GO MACHINE. SIT. SET BLUE. NA. SET ORANGE. 2082AD. PUSH
 LEVER. LEAVE MACHINE. S. S. E. S. W. W. W.

 At this point, you should be in Los Angeles, outside a house with a parked
 car. What you're supposed to do at this point:

 N. GET MAT. GET KEY. S. UNLOCK TRUNK. OPEN TRUNK. LOOK TRUNK. TAKE
 DYNAMITE.

 However, you can also get the dynamite simply by typing:

 GET ALL

 I get the impression that "GET ALL" was a bit of hack that was never
 properly implemented. There are cases where the script checks if you typed
 "GET ALL" just so it can put back objects in the room, or tell you to pick
 up the objects one at a time.

 I don't know if we should make a fix for this, or leave it for the
 speedrunners to abuse. It probably doesn't break the game.
