I don’t get which one is the most ‘official’ one. I’d say [bash.org](http://bash.org). But looks like we’ve got twins.

[http://www.bash.org](http://www.bash.org)

and

[http://qdb.us/](http://qdb.us/)

cheers,

It may have something to do with this link I found on qdb? [http://home.earthlink.net/~mweagley/bash\_strike.html](http://home.earthlink.net/~mweagley/bash_strike.html) :alien2:

yup and I was looking at ‘[bash.org](http://bash.org)’ vs ‘bash.cx’ searches in both databases and apparently they’re aware of it.

My bad… not a rip…

Neither one is a “rip” – both sites are forks of the original Quote Database that was at [http://digdug.cx/quotes/](http://digdug.cx/quotes/) and then [http://GeekIssues.org/quotes/](http://GeekIssues.org/quotes/)

More info about this can be found on Wikipedia: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash.org](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash.org)
