My pleasure. I had a blast writing it... and researching it, too.

Top article. XKCD has long since been a favourite of mine too. I bet that was a brilliant trip.

A mere sign isn't going to keep those clever ass-raptors out though. I hope you were armed with sufficient quantities of grapejuice.

I had plenty of fermented grape juice; does that count?

Well, thanks for spotting it; it's now fixed.

re-read it... I think my favorite part is "A quick sketch of a cat's face had the caption, "I can has chalk!"" Immediately some LOLcats came to mind and I ... LOL'd.

definitely fun times. wouldn't be surprised to see a bunch of plskthx scrawled after bad leet speak requests or spots from the ascii war flash vid.
