    Parental busyness and childish boredom do not mix well.

    Define useful Dad. Calvin never has problems with finding ways, they just differ from Mom & Dads.

    I thought it really was possible- Just not in a huge BOOM. A slow smoking, then suddenly you’re on fire.

    “A slow smoking, then suddenly you’re on fire.”

    That’s not spontaneous.

    Such a diabolical mind is almost wasted on comic strips. Can you imagine it turned to world domination? C&H warfare?? We could cut our military budget to a fraction!

    mrprongs says: “A slow smoking, then suddenly you’re on fire.” “That’s not spontaneous.” I think it is, Mrprongs. That’s exactly what happens to oily rags stored in a small space, for example. One definition: the chemical process of both spontaneous heating and subsequent spontaneous ignition. Spontaneous means “happening without apparent external cause,” not necessarily rapidly. I love Calvin’s vocabulary. He may get bad grades, but he’s not stupid.

    RayC, thank you for saving me the effort of being “useful” and posting that explanation of spontaneous. I loved Physics in school and spon. comb. was one of my favorite phenoms. Calvin is obviously trapped in an “underchallenging” environment.
