I imagine a culture, 10,000 years down the road, that reads from bottom to top. Wow, awesome, let's excavate one of these disease absorbing blocks!
Why not stick the waste in an old Uranium mine? Maybe our future descendants will be able to make good use of our radio active waste?

- michaelt 10y agoThe comic shows the tree has grown bigger in the final frame of the comic. So they'll have to assume it shrinks trees as well as absorbing disease :)
- wobbleblob 10y agoIt would never occur to me to interpret it that way, rather than him moving the block closer to the trees. Wouldn't it take a human life time for a tree to grow that much?
- jrockway 10y agoDepends on the type of tree. When I was a kid we got a tree cutting at some arbor day event and planted it in the backyard. By the next summer, the tree was as tall as our two-story house.
