    Don’t forget to write article too! ;)

    Anyhow, the strip is a good one… Are we really progressing somewhere? But it is possible that for your query you should have added the weight of each animal. :D

    Damn, I failed to see a typo in the strip…

    Come on Rolyat, there was an obvious French reference in there ;) ok I admit quoting “la cité de la peur” in english might be disturbing… but it’s considered French culture now isn’t it? :P

    Don’t worry I have some “real” aticles on the way (including one about the article you linked on twitter a while back on software engineering) but I’m a bit swamped right now so I’m not progressing fast.

    I laughed hard, thanks for that !

    I saw two typos in one strip…. that isn’t serious my dear Tim ;)

    In any case, keep them coming !

    Well, that’s the problem in writing the strips on my iphone in bed in the evening and rushing to assemble it while drinking my coffe in the morning in order to have it published before running after the bus :P

    Well, honestly, you may be wrong as soon as the second part of this strip.
    We all assume the answer to the question about life, universe and everything else is 42, but can you be positive about it ?
    In fact, it is just what a computer said. And as intelligent and well-designed Deep Thought might have been, it could still be as buggy and disturbed as, say, any Windows Me computer.
    Indeed, the fact that we are part of a computer Deep Thought itself designed, and how we are unable to execute a simple routine like be_honest(); or kiss_girl();, is a strong piece of proof claiming Deep Thought was just as nuts as any randomly-designed computer.

    No, I’m not insane. At least, I never asked Deep Thought who was stronger, rhinoceros or elephant. :-p

    Haha Herisson, not bad! But I guess we should ask TK himself… :P
