[Simo notes the similarity between the Junior Woodchucks logo and the Wiley 
logo.]

Simo, this is BRILLIANT! I never noticed it but now that you make me see 
it, I love it!

I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but it's still cute.

Talking of coincidences: my latest book, unlike my two previous ones, has 
nothing to do with comics, since it talks about security for computerized 
gizmos. It has, however, a prominent dedication to Carl Barks, credited as 
the inventor of the inventor Gyro Gearloose (a topical character when 
speaking of computerized gizmos). And, as you must have guessed by now, it 
sports the JW logo in the top-right corner because it's published by Wiley!
