                   The Quick and Dirty B-Movie Plot Generator
                                        
My friend JeffC [1] sent me a link to They Fight Crime [2], a CGI (Common
Gateway Interface) script that prints out a plot.

I checked the page, and it's all in JavaScript. Pretty easy. It looks easy.
So I take the text (it's there for the taking) and write my own version [3]
(in C of course) that can be easily extended (all the text are in files) and
I've even included character names. Mine also has more options than just
fighting crime. 

I do need to fix the pronouns in a few cases but I'll save that for later.

Oh, it only took a few years to fix the problem [4].
