I have a good idea on how to resolve it, but I ran out of time to go back to this strip and revise it. Might try it in future strips, or just fall back on the old angular bracket stand-by. :) 3) Can't all parents? Glad I made you laugh, John :D And once you realize he's in Japan, I hope the two week remark makes more sense--in the meantime, guess I better work on building my context clues! Thanks for all the good comments, folks! A day late and a dollar short, but answers abound!
