Where did you see this explanation?

I bet Picasso was always having to explain his stuff too till he became famous, then people would say, "Oh, now I get it".

Is the light in the cubby a rock touched by God, like those found in the Jaredite's barge?

Or, maybe it's one of those easily self-installed solar tubes? :)

Looking forward to more cartoons,

Space Ghost? Yipee! I sure hope your Nephi has a snarky instectoid/criminal sidekick like Zorak. In fact, I could also easily see Brak playing a role in the Book of Mormon.

I think you need to do one in which Nephi builds his steel mill right next to his replica of Solomon's Temple, and Laman and Lemuel (heads of the local homeowner's association) decide that it's an eyesore and have it condemned by the Mayan parliament. This is the beginning of the break between Nephi and Laman.

CKSalmon, I thought the picture in the OP was actually an ATM machine for plates or something. Like Nephi put in his Solomon's Temple recommend and out came the plates or something.

That's way better than my idea, Seth. You get the footnote in the 2nd edition.

CK, you started an interesting thread over at MAD regarding Millet, I wondered if you could return and respond.

I like it, CKSalmon!

While we're at it, why not Adamic as an option?
