It's not easy being a trendsetter any more.

It used to take a decade or so, then that shrank to a matter of months and now it happens overnight. Say something one day and the next day everybody wants to climb on board. I blame the Internet.

But whatever. I mention the coffee urn theory one day and the next day Gary Trudeau climbs on board. Check out his Sunday strip.

“White House Situational Science Advisor” Dr. Nathan Null says...

Situational science is about respecting both sides of a scientific argument, not just the one supported by the facts!

Oh well. I didn't actually invent the coffee urn theory anyway, I just mentioned it. And now everybody will be talking about it, wait and see.

Oh the power, the power.
