   Hehehe… XKCD seems to be a favorite of physicists. At my school, this one is posted on the SPS office door.

   Why is this funny?

   Because it’s TRUE!

   More help is needed here, Aaron F - perhaps we are divided by a common language. Planck’s law is as true as things get in physics; a fine and venerable example of science working, in fact. That of itself, though, hardly raises a titter. So who are these (doubting) bitches? Or is it something else, altogether? Is the temperature/frequency distribution shown particularly germane to why we are here / intelligent design arguments, whose proponents might merit a canine sobriquet?

   I have to admit to ‘getting’ all the other cartoons; this one just passes me by.

   Yours in expectation of enlightenment.
