   Wow, since when did we start covering topics like this, here?

   I doubt Hart would have ever done a strip of this sort, but as you know, he died last year, and the archive of drawings that he left on his computer having run out, his daughters and grandsons are now doing the strip.

   Someone should retire this comic in Hart’s honor before it’s completely ruined. Sad.

   I don’t know… the Ants have been getting drunk on fermenting grapes for years and years. Hart may have been religious, but he was plenty irreverent, too!

   Seems to me to be pretty harmless and funny stuff. Of course they would have wound up wiffing it if they burned it, its not like they have an air tight place to destroy it.

   WE are very amused. This is an old joke and it’s fun to see what different cartoonists do with it.

   Johnny Hart always used the Ants to explore titillating ‘Adult’ topics (drunkenness, put-down humor, LOTS of adultery, etc…) that would be too ‘shocking’ coming from his human characters. Still he used his schoolboy ant (‘Johnny,’ no less) to win theological arguments with the prickly teacher.
