Student: What do you call those guys who parachute off buildings?
Frazz: Statistics.
Student: Oh. Eww.
Miss Plainwell: I thought you called them base jumpers.
Frazz: Not around kids who still have more guts than experience.
Still, youth will not be deterred. My dad still gives me a hard time about the time a rescue squad had to get me down off the side of a cliff. I climbed it in spite of his warning.
sportymonk: The harmful components of CFLs can be recycled, the electricity is generated overwhelmingly by fossil fuel plants – mostly even more polluting coal.

Frazz is still in touch with his inner youth, and seems to know when to dispense the wisdom when necessary.

Good, Frazz, with the gear he was holding, he was getting ready to try it…you may have saved him some grief…

I notice Frazz is loading a CFL bulb in. Why are we eliminating regular incandescent bulbs when the CFLs are more dangerous to the environment?

I wonder if at least some of them might qualify as donorchuters.

Fluorescent lights give some people migraines. It going to be tough on them when they can’t legally buy incandescent lights.

Wish there was a Frazz when I was eight, made a parachute and tested it from the second story. Fortunately it was onto grass.
