What happens if you cast Stone to Flesh on a statue of a previous
incarnation of yourself? How about if you cast it on the statue of
Perseus?

You get a (usually) peaceful <race> called <name>. Same as when you zap
undead turning at a corpse of yourself.

In one case, at least, you get a really cranky wizard with a wand of
lighting and the oddest YASD on your score-list.
Totally worth it, though.

Unfortunately it does not create a saved game. I would like it to do so...

Wow.... now that's an idea I like. How exactly would you work it? How
would the two characters interact in each game?

Guh! The implementation issues make my brain hurt!

But yeah, that'd be the coolest of cool things if it could be made to

I've sent a request to the DevTeam that logfiles include timestamps
rather than just the date. If they pick up on that then I'll be able to
tie bones files to logfile entries.
