Just because we are getting better at something doesn't mean if we did it incorrectly in the past it suddenly becomes better.

None of these bodies were frozen in a way that matches modern techniques. No matter how advanced we become we can't fix that.

It's like if you had a washing machine from 30 years ago and said it uses less electricity now because washing machine technology has advanced so much

It's more like you have a huge pile of copper and electricity just had been invented IMO. It sure will work one day, that's a certainty, why not take the chance, if you can?

Hello fellow Far Side fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!
