Clone Digger contains clones itself :-)

I think this emphasizes the coolness of this tool. Clone Digger can be
used to make its own code look better.

I know that :)

Btw, people liked to ask me if the tool itself contains any clones; on the conferences, where I presented it

The most ugly clone was produced when I've added support for the Lua language. I've just  copy&pasted some functionality from the Java part. I didn't see any enthusiasm from the Lua community, so I stopped developing it and this clone will be a long-liver :)
