I'm reading "is my sister" from Clinton's reaction, not "could be my sister".

That's the most natural and probable interpretation but it's not conclusive.
Thank you, Dr. Karikó.

If she was, for instance, someone who kept being mistaken for his sister, I would have expected him to say that; the vagueness makes it pretty certain, I'd say.

I suspect we'll find out in short order. Sounds like Jeph has this one planned out.

I updated the strip-by-strip listing on the Wiki through last Friday.

Boy, I didn't realize I'd been THAT far behind with updating it.

If there seems to be something different about the front page of the Wiki, it's because I made a slight change in our "Brady Bunch" lead picture. The picture now reflects the nine characters with the most appearances in the comic, through September of 2012.

That's because there are two versions, and in one of the recent updates I screwed up and updated the wrong one. Gimme a bit; I'm on the iPod touch ATM.

EDIT: Actually, it appears that bit.ly is having some issues. That's probably the reason why the linky no worky.

For those of you who may be new, I have updated the "Strip-by-Strip" summaries list over on Scribd.

This is NOT a transcript of the 2k-plus strips that Jeph has drawn since '03; this is more or less a "Cliff's Notes" document to the comic. I will admit that it tends to get more "wordy" after about the strip 1,200 mark - which was about when I started the list.

Still - it's a good reference if you want to look up when Faye came up with the idea of The Theory of Hipster Relativity; or the relationship diagram from Faye's counseling session; or when exactly was the last appearance of Ellen or Nat in the strip.

Or you want to find out what strip is called the "Rickroll" strip.

Jwhouk has also captured most of the memorable quotes, so if you remember key dialog you can often find things in his list.

I've now got the strip-by-strip list updated through the end of March. I hadn't quite realized how "undetailed" the earlier entries were, but I really don't have time at the moment to go back and add stuff.

Necro'ing a pinned thread, because I FINALLY got some time to update the SxS document!

http://www.scribd.com/doc/98017010/QCSxS

Do keep in mind that Scribd is a stupid funny creature that requires you to either sign up and publish something of your own to get access to complete articles, or makes you pay for an account. If you're really wanting a copy of the first 10 years of QC in a summary document (NOTE: it is NOT a transcript), drop me a PM and I can send you either a PDF or DOCX version.

EDIT: I also finally edited the SxS summary on the Wiki. It's a bit on the long side (and unformatted in some spots).

I have discovered, though, that GDocs isn't useful on the iPhone; anyone able to see it with other mobile devices?

Although I never realized you could get free access by simply posting a doc yourself. They didn't make that particularly clear in the sign-up process. :roll: If I ever have occasion to look at another Scribd document, I'll give that a try.

The Google Docs app, as an editor, is decidedly... Underpowered. I much prefer the desktop Web interface, which works just fine on my phone.

Most "Mobile office suites" suck, though.
