It was a lot of work. I have seen perl scripts set up to pull random 
quotes from qdb or bash, but they don't work anymore from what I 
understand. You would think a nerd site like that would make it easy for 
other nerds to download or parse it.

My file was a huge one too. Easily a thousand favorites of mine, all of 
which were manaully formatted by me. That sucked.
