Remove unbalanced " from fortune entry

Here's the entry that I came across :

A system admin's life is a sorry one.  The only advantage he has over
Emergency Room doctors is that malpractice suits are rare.  On the
other hand, ER doctors never have to deal with patients installing
new versions of their own innards!"
                -- Michael O'Brien

>How-To-Repeat:

Run fortune until you come across it, then stare at it for 10 or 15 minutes
trying to figure out what there's only one " in there.

 A tautology is a thing which is tautological.
