Pete et al.,

although I'm quite new here, and I don't want to interfere
with other things... here are my two pence:

People like Ojoshiro have made some parodies with your Steins.
And quite a few of them were even funny... That's why they
are parodies. Parodies btw do not infringe copyrights
if I'm informed correctly.

Now please enjoy it while it lasts, and please go on posting
your own very humorous cartoons!

And to all of you: please, stop the flaming...
I happen to like this group without it ;)
