I must not have been paying much attention because I figured there were only a handful of quotes from this guy, not the list Killing Time quoted. Yikes! Instead of deleting many of them, we could just add on a bunch more quotes by others too.

I realize this is probably a very trivial thing to most, but the thing that bugs me the most about the hints file is that many of the appended attributions or explanations are tagged on in parentheses instead of what I'm pretty sure is the standard convention of tagging them on with an em dash. Just think of all the punctuational and grammatical wrongs we're teaching the young OOTPers out there! It's not so easy of a find and replace either because parentheses are used within many of the quotes themselves.
