Saying Yes
“Piers, do you want to do a keynote at OSCON?”
“Yes! What should I talk about?”
“Well… you know xkcd.com?”
“Yes.”
“There’s this strip over here. It’d be fun if…”
“Oh! Hell yes!”
So here I am. Saying yes.

Uncertain of the educational merit of the song about space.
(but lots and lots of fun. Thanks!)
I love it when you get us to sing. Thanks again for sharing that wonderful song with us.
