	I have heard of and been read to from a book called:

	"The 637 *other* Best Things anyone ever said."

	Presumably, it is a sequel, but I have been unable to find
	the book that it follows.

	Its hilarious! (at least the parts that I heard were) This book
	reads like the fortune database (at least thats the kind of
	quotes one finds there). A friend of mine in Palo Alto uses quotes
	from this book for the database in his own fortune program.
	(strangely enough, my friend's name is Erik Fortune :-)

	Sorry, I don't know the publisher or author (editor?) but this
	shouldn't be too hard to find.
