I can't believe KHAN also forgot the "READY" at the top - maybe he needs a defrag :)

Impossible, Spike! Being completely in character as an Atari 800, KHAN has no hard drive to fragment in the first place. Perhaps he just didn't feel the need to say "ready." After all, that's not really part of the program; it's just the prompt.

Brian,
I don't know what you call those little pop up thingies that show when one moves the cursor onto the strip, but some of them are basically punny.

Ahh... Jim found our geek joke on last Friday's strip. Those of you with fairly new browsers can try it yourself, otherwise, you'll just have to look at the source code to find out what he's talking about.

Have you notice they only talk about global warming in the summer and global cooling in the winter?
Loved Monday's strip.

Maybe in the future, we could get "them" to spend the spring and the fall talking about a "global very-comfortable-temperature" to balance things out.

Shhh about the hurricanes; they might hear you and you might jinx us. Ok, never mind. I just think it's funny that all those hurricane specialists are wrong. This was suppose to be a big year. Lots of hurricanes. They changed their predictions how many times? Exactly what kind of science they using?

It is far spookier than "global cooling." It is actually called "global dimming"
It means that we are getting less sunlight. One of the most outrageous claims is that vapor trails of airplanes are blocking the sunlight, and to back this up they cite the amount of sun received during the days after 9/11 when commericial aircraft where grounded.
Originally, global dimming was said to hide the "true" effects of global warming by offsetting them. But I suppose that now they will soon say that global dimming is overtaking global warming.
This will of course mean that plants won't get enough sunlight, thus not produce enough oxygen and food. So, WE WILL ALL DIE!
Happy Halloween.

In the spirit of Halloween, YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!! BWU-WAH-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!
Okay, we're not giving you a timetable. It will probably take decades for most of you, but it's gonna happen.

Come on Brian, global cooling was like so 30 years ago. Of course, the media did the same thing back then.
--Jerry

And we guess they'll do the same thing 30 years from now, just with some other end of the world scenario.
