		We thought Lasswell's strip contained a gold mine of cultural signifiers and flattered ourselves to think that it took a sophisticated sense of humor to see that many of Snuffy's twitches were actually winks.
		Lasswell had just turned 80 at the time, and he had worked on the strip since 1934, so I expected to meet a pen-and-ink traditionalist.
		Lasswell said that, with the problem of drunk driving and whatnot, Snuffy's relationship to his still had run its course.
