The bloody commission that governs our entire higher-educational system!

To speak in American terms, it's like eliminating the entire DMV-system to get out of ticket.

I suddenly feel compelled to ride one.

Well that's brilliant!

The hell? I dunno why, but that post above was mine, dunno why it got posted as "anonymous." (must have clicked the checkbox accidentally)

Another tip: xkcd comic usually get a transcript (which helps as an explainer) after a day or two.

My dead-beat nokia feature phone has it coded in, but no surprise it is not carrier supported.
