>Description:
In the following fortune:
I also believe that academic freedom should protect the right of a
professor or student to advocate Marxism, socialism, communism, or any
other minority viewpoint -- no matter how distasteful to the majority.
-- Richard M. Nixon
What are our schools for if not indoctrination against Communism?
-- Richard M. Nixon
communism is spelled both with a capital 'C' and a lowercase 'c'.
Probably both should be lowercase 'c', but at least being consistent would
be good.
>Release-Note:
>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
The word 'communism' now appears with lower-case "C"
in both occurences with the fortune game. Or, it will if the
attached or below-quoted patch is committed.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Apply the below patch to /usr/src/games/fortune/datfiles/fortunes
