Science by Lucia, cartoon by Josh - 173 Jun 12, 2012

Yesterday Lucia sent me an email about the recent Gergis et al 'on hold' paper with the subject title "Do you understand the math enough to do a cartoon?".
My response was, of course, to nervously read the email to gauge just how embarrassing my assured 'fail' would be.
Luckily Lucia is a genius at words as well as numbers and after a few emails back and forth she had explained the problem sufficiently well and suggested a possible cartoon solution. So this is truly a joint cartoon with all the clever bits by Lucia and some drawing by me.
She even wrote a haiku.
