1. Fix small typo "retorted ." -> "retorted."
2. Remove from fortunes a story that is duplicated in fortunes2-o
3. Remove from fortunes and fortunes2-o Zippy the Pinhead quotes
that are already in the zippy file.
4. ... therefore remove zippy from fortunes.sp.ok
5. Remove a duplicate in the zippy file.
Delete some duplicates found while double checking the new ones,
and fix a typo.
These haven't been sorted yet, but will be in a future commit.

- typos
- different spelling, punctuation, whitespace
- phonetically similar names
- words rearranged ("was once" vs "once was" etc)
If a limerick appeared as a single one and as part of a
double or triple, the singleton was removed.
With a little help from: sort limerick|uniq -d
This still turns up 20 lines being repeated, but the respective
limericks are sufficiently unique to leave them in (i.e. most differ
in at least two lines).

The other Hitler quotes/references stay in the unoffensive file, as
they offer more historical perspective than this one.

discussing with me, and I obviously disagree seeing that afterwards
(srandomdev() back out not fix any thing, it can only mask the problem).
So, back out the back out and return srandomdev().
People who have problems with repeated quotes should use -D fortune
option for debugging to see is the problem in (1) /dev/random initialization
or in (2) fortune code itself.
I will be glad to help, but I can't reproduce repeated quote situation
on my machine.
In either case found, (1) or (2) should be fixed instead of removing
srandomdev().

This should have already worked properly if random(4) has been
initialized correctly, but it seems that this is frequently not the
case. Instead, use the microsecond part of the current time as the
seed.
for rand(3), not random(3). random(3) is defined to return values between
0 and 2^31-1, so add a local RANDOM_MAX constant to this file that is
defined as 2^31-1 and use that in place of RAND_MAX.
