From a reader:

Surely, you arenโ€™t going to take credit for stating the incredibly obvious?
Shoot, โ€œpredictingโ€ that Tโ€™Pol would go into heat when the ratings dropped is like โ€œpredictingโ€ the time of sunset or sunrise. Given a modicum of knowledge, it is obvious.
Any scifi/comic book geeks worth their intellect (like you and me) saw this one coming. I am only surprised that it took so long!
I donโ€™t know whether to say โ€œduhโ€ or โ€œcongratulations.โ€ I suppose that youโ€™ll settle for the latterโ€ฆ.

P.S. Tell K-Lo that some of us like obscure Trek/Simpsons/Marvel references spliced into the running corner observations.
