Description Dan Armak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-02-12 13:03:16 UTC
Most of the longer quips (the random ones at the beginning of each 
bugzilla page) have embedded linebreaks (as seen when viewing all quips). 
So bugzilla sees each line as a quip and the resulting quotes don't make 
any sense.

Which is a part of this quip 
(http://bugs.gentoo.org/quips.cgi?show_quips=yes):
As soon as we started programming, we found to our surprise that it wasn't 
as easy to get programs right as we had thought. Debugging had to be 
discovered. I can remember the exact instant when I realized that a large 
part of my life from then on was going to be spent in finding mistakes in 
my own programs.

Hi!

This is a duplicate of Bug# 103. I know because I submitted #103 and because I
was the one who goofed up and caused #103. :)

Sorry about that
