CoH and TBBT

I was looking at the AP33 T-shirts online, and wondering how many of them would be seen at Comic-Con this year. That made me think of the TV show, "The Big Bang Theory", and a thought occurred to me. On the show, they've had indicators of CoH's presence: CoH and CoV posters in the comic-book store, Captain Sweatpants wears a Statesman-themed T-shirt, and, in one episode, Leonard said that, when they played CoH, they played heroes. I wonder if they could be persuaded to have someone wear an AP33 T-shirt in an episode.

That would be tremendously cool, and I'm guessing not entirely outside the realm of possibility.  Anyone got the twitter of the creators of that show?

This might be better suited to a "write-in" campaign, rather than a Twitter bomb. Unless we have someplace to send them, like the site selling the shirt, and we do it in a coordinated fashion that isn't just look like a 'bot, it's just going to be annoying and ignored.
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

Yeah, that would be

These are online?  Where?  Does any of the money go to one of the successor projects?

I did a search for "ap33" and "t-shirt" in Yahoo search, and the first four hits are for the right shirt. (Well, the first yields a mug and a tie, actually; I hate fuzzy searching, where you can't limit the results when searching for an exact quote.) They're really good-looking, but can anyone explain the significance of the binary numbers between the logo and "Long live Paragon City"?

It reads "AP33".

Put "01000001 01010000 00110011 00110011" in an online binary-to-text converter.

I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder

Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive

:beats head against desk at the revelation of the tremendously obvious: Ooookay. Thanks.
