The little thought provoking messages after you post Inflate your Upload Space

Yeah, is there a database or something I can look at to read these messages? I saw one involving Pink Floyd and I'd like to read it again if possible.

We should make a contest out of guessing the next time it will be asked.

There is another thread still on the first page dealing with this question...

That just means you should look outside of OT more often. OT is not the entire world.

Actually, we should make a contest of when it'll be answered.

None of the threads mention have an answer to the question

Haha! I found another thread on this topic!

http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...&threadid=90687

In this thread IW gives a link to the fortune quote database. I've read through a couple of the files and one of them has a quote from Slowwhand so I assume it includes the quotes added by Apolytoners.

http://apolyton.net/upload/files/Im...ortunequote.zip

Direct link to the zip file IW linked to.

I don't know where that came from.
But how, pray tell, did a post of mine come to rest in this thread if I never looked outside the OT?

Somebody actually accusing Skanky of not posting enough outside off-topic?
He's one of the most equal of equal-opportunity spammers IMHO.

Maybe he posted it thinking he was logged is as his original login. This could provide a big DL clue. Think, Skanky, think.

I am not that disorganized online. I post in three different forums, each one with a different name(only one per forum), and I never refer to myself with the wrong name. I also have a good memory of nearly everything I say, so, no, I would not post something with one login and think I was posting with the other even if I was foolish evough to get another login here.

Talk about getting threadjacked...

anyway

Yes I saw the other threads, but both of them were asking where the quotes come from. I could care less where they come from, I just want to read over them until I find the one I'm looking for. The only way I can think of accomplishing this (besides hoping some helpful person will reply to this thread) is by spamming until I see the message again. Unfortunately, I don't believe the mods would take too kindly to that.

The other way is to download the files and run grep on them.

Tired of ads?

If I'm not mistaken, grep is a linux command that searches in files for user defined info.

Harry Seldon is right, it is a linux command for search files for strings.

Check the following lines.
line 1256 of definitions
line 606 of education
line 1270 of science
lines 339,1069,1731,2029,2124,2582,3949,4754,5836,6323,6
967 of songs-poems

If you use a crappy text editor that doesn't tell you the line you're on, switch to emacs.
