This is one of 59 incomplete explanations: I'm not very good at explaining these things, but maybe someone else can fix it If you can fix this issue, edit the page!

An extra comic drawn by Randall for Bill 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 will. 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, apparently oblivious to the fact that the current methods are working just fine. May be mocking those who think that high technology solves everything.
