Petey: Wow! There've been some real advances in Little Neuro scholarship! Petey: Experts have traces Little Neuro back to a Flemish manuscript from the early 1500's featuring a character named Petit Neureaux. Petey: He's such a bump on a log that he stays in bed and misses the whole Renaissance, prototypical Little Neuro behavior! Petey: How about that! Isn't this book great? Alice: Yeah! It's great! Alice: I can't hear a word you say, when you're on the other side of it. Petey: I tell you, we live in the Golden Age of comic strip scholarship!

Petey has uttered profound truth! Too bad Alice can’t hear him (what with herself being a cartoon character and all…).

Blaise Pascal was a Petit Neureaux fan as evidenced by the following comment.“All of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone.” —Blaise Pascal

But of course you are right, MS72. That is why we are engaged by scholarship rather than creativity

It probably happens to me all the time. Peety missed it and I undoubtably do too.
