Well, yeah. The Golden Age of The Far Side. Who here wasn't a fan then, I ask you?

Excellent detective work, by the way, well done. It's exactly as I remember it.

Has the Smartphone destroyed a generation? The Atlantic ponders as the data comes in to say, "OMG YES". Long time defender of phones but this is pretty amazing...
