An extra comic drawn by Randall for Gates' blog to celebrate World Polio Day. As noted, the disease polio has nearly been eradicated, with only a few isolated pockets remaining. Current methods of eradicating it are working well. As Ponytail is explaining this, Hairy for some reason claims that they need different methods. He then makes a series of increasingly ridiculous suggestions on different ways to eradicate polio, using overly advanced and complicated (and in some cases, nonexistent) technology. This may be because current methods are lacking the effort and funding to continue.
