In this post he mentions that:

Dilbert has been used in several court cases where an attorney tried to demonstrate the date when obscure technical issues became “common knowledge” and therefore something that a reasonable person should know. The importance in the court cases is that a defendant couldn’t claim ignorance about something that is so widely known it can be included in a Dilbert comic without explanation.

It appeals to my inner geek that a comic strip has become a symbol of human knowledge but also nags at the back of my brain that something so pop-culture is becoming so authoritative. So what do you think? A) Neat, B) troubling or C) egeek has too much time on his hands?
