Comic Strip Title: "Solar Flares"

Key Elements:

  • Dilbert's Request: Dilbert asks his colleague to page him if he needs him, only to be told that he will be unavailable due to solar flares blocking his page.
  • Colleague's Response: The colleague explains that he will have some blockage during high tide, low tide, humidity, and most of his equinoxes.
