Just sort of wondering if anyone else here has noticed that Car Talk was referenced in [a rather entertaining webcomic](http://xkcd.com/582/) just recently.  
  
 I meant to post this here the day that comic went up, but put it in completely the wrong section and didn’t realize it until tonight.

I especially like the subtext:

> It was the funniest 6.5 seconds of my life, although as usual like 80% of it was just Tom and Ray’s gasping, hacking laughter.
