Where's the title text exu? Where is it, huh? You gonna hand over that xkcd title text?

(It's "Luckily, the range is limited by the fact that the square boundary lines follow great circles.")

Unfortunately doesn't seem to work with the image direct link. Thanks for providing it!

Let's see if this works:

Edit: It does not. Bummer.

That's usually for alt text though

Yeah, that text should show if the picture fails to load. I tend to leave it blank. I have seen my formatting work for mouseover text in the past, but it doesn't seem to when viewing the comment either in boost or on quokk.au. Probably not implemented since hardly anyone uses it.
