The Institute for Knowing Things is usually published in the UK magazine The Skeptic, but a couple of days ago I come up with an idea that wouldn't really suit the magazine so here it is.
The idea of this strip was that frames one and two would be factually correct, and the last frame would be an amusing, if untrue, consequence of the first two.
I learnt about the use of children's toys in Cold War discussions in a TV documentary I happened to watch about twenty years ago. I've not been able to find any supporting evidence on t'internet since then, but I like to think it's true.
