William Carroll 916e46d7ce Support script to download RFCs to my Kindle
Today I learned that you can email your Kindle files to read them using the
paperwhite display. I'm attempting to read RFCs, so after reading 1/4 of the way
through RFC6479 (on OAuth2.0), I realized that it might be easier to read on my
Kindle instead of on my computer screen. Out of this, rfcToKindle.go was born.

I'm not sure if I'd like to publish this or not.
