1. Max's magisterial deconstruction of Dilbert ignored a crucial character:
Phil, the Prince of Insufficient Light, armed with a large spoon. The world
waits for Max's analysis.
2. Libertarians like Scott Adams often have very good senses of humor --
like their cousins the anarchists, but unlike true conservatives. On the
latter, can you imagine one of those kinder-küche-kirche konservatives
(e.g., Jerry Falwell) intentionally evoking a laugh? or a Stalinist doing
so? ("Comrade Beria, that was a rib-tickler!" (stormy applause.))
3. There are a lot of cases of labor revolt -- including in the Russian
Revolution -- in which relatively skilled workers justified their revolt by
saying that they could do the job better than their bosses.
