And then when I did, I'd be starving because I ran out of food, so I'd have to kill it to find it. And then a thing would pop up that says "You shot 440255 pounds of food. Unfortunately, you can only carry 100 pounds of food back to your wagon". It would be sweet to lead an expedition to go find it.

I'm eagerly awaiting notification from Barnes & Noble that my copy of the book is available for pickup, so I'm official. Also, big thanks to all the commenters on DI for making the comments just as readable as the articles. This is the only site where I read all the comments, usually without wanting to beat someone senseless-er. Finally, I should probably comment on the actual article. You know you have problems with anxiety with things like this freak you out. I was all "Ohmygodtherewillbenobananaswhatinheckwillwedo" etc. I enjoy bananas as much as the next individual, but I really hope scientists put cancer ahead of bananas on the "Stuff to Fix" list.

I even bought the book. I'm going to assume the fetal position now, rock gently back and forth, and whimper until a new article is posted. If anyone needs me, I'll be under the desk.

Perhaps someday a new Pie of Damn Interesting Knowledge will again be placed in the oven. I miss you guys and your damn interesting content.
