Ponder no more, you've been bitten by the fortune teller!  Kinda shocks
you at first, until you realize... _if_ you realize. :)

[->]  Bitten is the right word :(  Just about gave me  a heart
attack...  *That* fortune is being taken out *today*.  I might
point out to the core team that they may wish to put this
one under the "dirty" fortunes by default...  It's really not
funny in a production environement at 2:30 in the morning,
when you are sniffing your network to try and track down
mysterious network problems...

Well, actually, it *IS* funny...   But...
