b67c0e7d8f Another typo in the previous commited fix. That makes four typos 
in one fortune of only 32 words. Based on that single ratio, there
are 50453 more typos in the rest of the fortunes file....

716b0c76f3 Add two little nuggets of wisdom I picked up at work today: 
The three most dangerous things in the world are a programmer with a
  soldering iron, a hardware type with a program patch and a user with
  an idea. -- The Wizardry Compiled by Rick Cook

  and

  Debugging is anticipated with distaste, performed with reluctance, and
  bragged about forever. -- Button at the Boston Computer Museum

I wonder why people call me a cynic. ;-)
