["In the service of Virman Vundabar we learn perfection!"]

I've posted another "fortune(6)" directory to net.sources.games.  This
version lacks nifty features like indexing, but it does

	* let the user ask for a genuine fortune cookie instead of
	  a stale old joke;
	* include programs to weed out duplicate jokes (yay!);
	* distinguish data files by meaningful names (e.g., "cleanjokes").

As a bonus, it includes our (previously undistributed) "localjokes" file,
which contains quite a few verses of the Roguelet's ABC.  (Where are the
rest?)
