[Year 12 IT Apps] For Laurie, but also a bit of a chuckle..

[Laurie Savage]

Thanks Kent, 

I forgot that I still had that turned on. One of the
things I like about Linux is all those cute palaeolithic Unix apps buried
inside. My tags are generated by one such doodad called "fortune". My
mailer is able to run a script in lieu of a normal signature, hence the
random tags.
