Tova:
Today sets a new record for the number of posts I got through before it dawned on me that you must be talking about a new comic (five).

So, for everyone else like me in the cheap seats - there is a new comic.

I'd like to know what document exchange format people of the future use. Because, like Jeph says, they are indeed like a democracy. I think we're stuck with them for awhlie.

the silent firefly:
maybe it's all leading up to Roko embracing the dark side, kissing the ring, and asking Yay to do whatever they need to do to make something happen...

Mr Intrepid:

Tho considering the weird stuff that comes up (Pizza vis re-entry vehicle) the money and/or resources SHOULD be there.

Maybe that's what happened to the original document.  Dr EC used one of his pizza delivery re entry  vehicles and it overheated the paper.


BenRG:
Am I the only one here who quite happily uses PDFs for his employer's official documents and scans and has no problem with the format at all?

Anyway, it figures that Dr John would insist on using 'proven technology'... Including putting paper hard copy in a re-entry capsule that was designed to cook a pizza during its flight. I don't know how hot you have to make an oven to cook a pizza during the five minutes or so of re-entry but I'm sure it's hot enough to make paper anoxically incinerate! It's kind of odd that a man who is a blue sky thinker and a proven innovator feels more comfortable with tools that have been around the block a few times. I suppose when you're living with the Alpha phase of technology pretty much 24/7, you'd feel happier with stuff that you know has had time to be debugged!

Gyrre:

I blame hipsters.  :laugh:

Though, it wouldn't surprise me if the company had some with that WhoopsieGuard (TM).
