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.

862db1562f Move the Rush Limbaugh fortunes to the offensive file, right after the
Anti-Reagan section. :) Apparently, people find opinions contrary to
their own to be offensive.

8153c8ffd9 * Add $FreeBSD$ to limerick and zippy
* Delete trailing white space in all its forms. In addition to being
bad style in general, it also causes formatting, and other problems
for various third party items (like xscreensaver) which use fortunes
for their own purposes.

bcee06d42c o Move NTOHL() and associated macros into <sys/param.h>. These are
deprecated in favor of the POSIX-defined lowercase variants.
o Change all occurrences of NTOHL() and associated marcros in the
  source tree to use the lowercase function variants.
o Add missing license bits to sparc64's <machine/endian.h>.
  Approved by: jake
o Clean up <machine/endian.h> files.
o Remove unused __uint16_swap_uint32() from i386's <machine/endian.h>.
o Remove prototypes for non-existent bswapXX() functions.
o Include <machine/endian.h> in <arpa/inet.h> to define the
  POSIX-required ntohl() family of functions.
o Do similar things to expose the ntohl() family in libstand, <netinet/in.h>,
  and <sys/param.h>.
o Prepend underscores to the ntohl() family to help deal with
  complexities associated with having MD (asm and inline) versions, and
  having to prevent exposure of these functions in other headers that
  happen to make use of endian-specific defines.
o Create weak aliases to the canonical function name to help deal with
  third-party software forgetting to include an appropriate header.
o Remove some now unneeded pollution from <sys/types.h>.
o Add missing <arpa/inet.h> includes in userland.
