I didn't do it!

A long time ago, in an attempt to see if any of the ChemScrapes cartoons are getting hits, I just googled "chemistry cartoons" under image search. Sadly, none of the cartoons from this site came up. Surprisingly, what did come up where a couple of cartoons published in a magazine a number of years back. One of these cartoons is shown below along with the caption - which contained a typo.

Seeing this brought back the horror I felt seeing it in print for the first time. Of course it is meant to read "supramolecular chemistry" - not "supermolecular chemistry". This actually appeared in the final edition of the magazine, so there was never any scope for a correction. And so, 14 years down the track, I would like to point out...it's a typo and it's not my fault!!!
