Sixers Zero to Seven - Ms. Pac Man

This new series of Sixers (below) starts July 1, 2010 and begins numbering in binary (& hexadecimal). These first eight use as a key the fruit levels in Ms. Pac-Man. The source text is the fruit's entry in Wikipedia. The list of fruits comes from http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23903 .

I also rewrote the Sixer program in Ruby, and I've significantly increased the number of words that are filtered out. The recent Sixers had been done in C/C++. The originals (from 1998) were done with a Unix shell script.

For this sixer I had the program "randomly" remove one third of the words. That is, each 6 character string originally selected had a one in three chance of being removed from the final sixer.
