bff11a8c74 s/-300K/~300K/ 
This is an absolute (kelvin) temperature.  I expect that in the original
source it was typeset as $\sim 300~{\rm K}$ or similar, meaning
"approximately 300 K".  Changing it to a minus sign in the fortunes file
was clearly an error, as absolute temperatures are by definition positive.

Alas, the first one is a repeat in a slightly different format and
ought to be removed (or the other copy). I'll leave that to more
enterprising souls, though (Cthulhu loves enterprising souls).

Fortunes that a sufficiently twisted mind could perceive as offensive
have been moved to murphy-o.  Thanks to the submitter for reviewing
these fortunes.

1c30cbf7fc By overwhelming demand, revert the one=two joke to its previous form. 
Also, fix a couple whitespace formatting errors and typos.

Note that the Klingon joke has a 12-point version in the
-chat list, mesg-id: <19990717120618.C269@marder-1> (thanks to
DES and to submitter doug@gorean).  Also, note that the following
people need to learn to double-space after a period: <DougB@gorean.org>,
<des@flood.ping.uio.no>, <mellon@pobox.com>, <jeroen@vangelderen.org>,
and <rsidd@physics.iisc.ernet.in>.
