    Do they not have smart phones in the Narboniverse? Of course, that could just be a plot device for the final frame.

    Plus, I’m not sure Tip is the best one to suggest charities.

      Sweetheart has some trouble with mobile devices.

        That was a fun little story.

        If Unity can use those touchscreens, she presumably carries an electric charge (perhaps as a side effect of her nanotech operating): I wonder if more “regular” zombies do?

        Also trouble with pencil sharpeners, I hear. One of the reasons she needs Unity.

    I seek to recall that Tip agreed with H.T. on the Graviton being A Very Bad Idea? And I don’t recall reading any comic where he had been given reason to change his mind. So why is he suddenly acting pro-Groovitron in both yesterday’s and today’s comics for no apparent rhyme or reason? o_O

      Well, he is a government agent, and he’s here to help.

      Because Tip was the only one who survived the Groovitron. Despite his better judgment (such as it is), he must feel some sort of attachment to the device.

      Tip was anti-Groovitron. Tip was put in the Groovitron. Tip is now pro-Groovitron.

      Nope, can’t see a possible connection here!

        That is a positively chilling correlation. Which means there has to be something to it.

        Ah, but H.T. turned out to be anti-Groovitron, which Tip &c. consider sufficient reason to reconsider their own opposition.

    If the two of them are looking to start a blaze of glory, I hope those outfits are NASCAR moon suits.

      If there were a Nascar team kitted out in a theme along like that, then I might consider watching Nascar. A Formula 1 team would be really awesome: put radiation and hazmat stickers all over the place!

      I did computer work for a police department back in the ’90s and was out ghastly sick for a week or so, it might have been when I had walking pneumonia. I came back and I had a hazmat sticker on my mug and crime scene tape all around my work area. I loved it!

    cue the music – swelling to a sad climax and drifting to a distant horizon

    Pity, I liked Vermont. It’ll be a shame to see it go.

      Eh, you can get cheese and maple products elsewhere.

        If Vermont were to be destroyed, the server hosting the compiled filename story would be destroyed with it.

          No problem, John. I have the compilation on my own hard drive – I’ve been putting it together in book form, adding punctuation and whatnot, since the beginning. Hadn’t realized until very recently that you were doing the same thing. And in Michigan, I’m a safe distance (I think) from Vermont. But I still wish they’d release the whole story. With luck, it’ll be included in the reprint project.

    So, I suppose we’re all still ignoring Chekov’s, uh, rocket…
