Seems like a low estimate. Why, just the efforts of Matt Groening deserve
credit for more than 2%.

Subject: Fear and Bob in Connecticut
Leaving my slack rich california home to the frigid Connecticut was shock
enough, but imagine my wonder when I found an advert for "Bob's Stores" in
the local paper. "Everyone's Favorite Stores" it read, and contained info
about "Bob Bucks" (physical manifestation of slack) which read "In Bob We
Trust". While I was unable to visit one of these stores and confront the
owners, the warm glow from that ad kept me safe for the remainder of the
xmas season.
