    Time and Relative Dimensions In Space. AKA T.A.R.D.I.S. How do you spell relief? T-A-R-D-I--ummm-S! Has anyone who doesn't like Doctor Who ever latched onto the fact that the name of his time/space vehicle is awfully similar to the word "retard"? Retardis anyone? (Yeah. Tasteless, I know. But, I'm pretty sure there are a few people out there with mental retardation that WOULD find this comment funny.)
