Heh, it's supposed to be.  :)  Very useful if you want to set up one of

out of conf/options.h (from the BIND src root directory).

  "Hello, Hello Kitty", said Tuxedo Sam. 
  A voice answered back, louder than a thousand rock concerts, with words
which seemed to stretch from pole to pole, from the lowest hell to the
highest heaven: "I AM HELLO KITTY, DESTROYER OF WORLDS!"
