Heh, who are these people who were dissapointed by it? Everyone I've showed it to loves it. That said, I fear whatever Millie makes. Dooooom!

Interesting, I wonder what Millie will do next.
I'm not going to pick up on your sarcasm...

I think I see how this works. The... erm, thing... influences a nearby butterfly to flap (or not flap) its wings, creating a small air current that, by application of the chaos theory, changes the weather patterns somewhere in the world.

Right?

heh, if actually knowing what you were doing beforehand was required, very little would get done.

Hey, don't underestimate the power of butterflies. Real programmers can use them to write their programs!

Hilarious comic today though.

God I would hope not.

I got it too, and laughed at the title.

I thought it was an Echo the Dolphin reference

If I had done more than glance at the title, I would have gotten it long ago. Dunno how I could have missed it, given that that's one of my favorite songs. :?

He should play Echo the Dolphin. Those games are delightful

For the record, the second-to-last level of Ecco the Dolphin was called 'Welcome to the Machine' as a reference to the Pink Floyd song. I'm pretty sure this comic name is a reference to the same song.
