I am missing something, right? His page does not have any fortune files. The links just point to docs. Is this just a page of links to manpages of fortunes? It literally says: "Here you can find the fortune files from various operating systems." Thought that meant there would at least be links to the locations of the text databases. I still use fortune on a lot of workstations. It usually takes the students a while before they even realize that when they login a short fortune was given (when they have to ssh into a box for example).

> I am missing something, right? right. Try clicking links in the menu. Although I admit that link labeled "fortune files" leading to a definition of what fortune files are rather than to the fortune files themselves is a bit misleading.

  Huh, I am now officially too damn logical and not brave enough. I saw them and thought, that is a menu for the site, not the actual jar files, why would I click on them? I did not know cat-v was such a curator of fortunes. I like this one but I modded it (and fixed spelling of retrieval. Ok, I did not, Firefox did) using ubuntu is like deciding you want your computer to be run by the [Ministry of Information Retrieval] in the movie Brazil -- kfx
