One of my most enjoyable adequacy experiences has been following the ongoing exploits of Linux Zealot (tm), as he struggles to come to terms with a world which simply does not care which OS he uses.

for sometimes I feel like my columns are seed thrown on rocky soil, and I wonder if I would get a better response if I spoke in a language that geeks seem to more easily understand, perhaps a superhero, or perhaps some big Japanese robots. Do people really respond that much better to pretty pictures, like Linux Zealot, than to informative and educational columns?

Have your Bible ready beside you, say some strong prayers and go look up 'Hentai' on the Internet. This is the only artform geeks truly appreciate. However I doubt one could convey all of God's glory when the only characters available are improbably large-headed girls and octopii.

I dunno, you could get most of the Garden of Eden scenes and quite a bit of Revelation with that at your disposal.

Although I'm not sure if it accomplishes Rightmann's goals: apocamon.

It makes the Good Book so much more accessable. For example, I didn't realise I was never going to heaven until I read Apocamon.

for I have been a long and loyal adequacy reader. Rest assured gentle readers, there would be no tentacle molestation in my online comic.
