This has always been one of my favorite cartoons. You know when your sitting in a meeting and somone presents a problem and then somehow in the middle of the solution “a miracle happens”? I have been in way to many meetings lately where this leap of logic happens.
When in doubt go to DDL (data doesn’t lie).

Um. That’s not a Far Side/Gary Larson cartoon. It’s Sidney Harris, and if I recall correctly, published in The New Yorker magazine.

I remember this cartoon when I was in grad school, which goes back to the mid 70s. I believe (stress believe…) that it originally appeared in American Scientist.
A brilliant and timeless piece of work!
It’s difficult to find well-informed people about this topic, but you sound like you know what you’re talking about! Thanks
