My four year old son drew [this pink and green robot](http://i.imgur.com/OnzJpro.png) over the weekend, copying my blue and orange one.

It’s cool & unusual because he was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and, until a month ago, would not even hold a pen/crayon in a way that would let him draw or write with it. As far as I know, this is his first ever representational drawing. He spent the day telling people “This is a drawing about robots. It’s Daddy and Elliot…”

About 97%? You won’t get very far in accounting with that kind of attitude; we need it to two decimal places.
