“Note: An estimated seventy-five percent of all books of humor that confirm to current laughter-safety guidelines are now out-of-print. Owners of summer cottages may wish to conduct under-bed searches for any book by Erma Bombeck, Andy Rooney, Art Buchwald, Dave Barry, Bill Cosby, or Tim Allen.”—Canadian author-illustrator Bruce McCall, “Shouts and Murmurs: Laughter-Safety Guidelines Set,” The New Yorker, Nov. 19, 2001
