  15     I believe the original is at:
  16         http://umweb1.unitedmedia.com/comics/dilbert/duh/bin/ms_gen/ms2.cgi
  17 
  18     Usage:
  19         [[WikiTips(TipPage)]]
  20 
  21     Examples:
  22         [[WikiTips(WikiTips)]] -- generates a random wikitip from WikiTips
  23     
  24     Comments:
  25         It will look for list delimiters on the page in question.  It will ignore
  26         anything that is not in an "*" list.
  27         Needs to be updated to new request object.  I'm sure this is easy.
  28         Can change the name of this to RandomQuote, etc.  
  29         Also should probably figure out how to format the selected item instead of just displaying it.
