Wouldn't the paperwork of having to pay someone 24 cents for drawing a dozen shep cost more than 24 cents, or did they use amazons turk to do this as well?

Funny...there was an article on /. yesterday about MTurk, which I forwarded to a friend, as we'd discussed it on Friday. I read about the sheep thing, and naturally my thoughts drifted a bit north...and here we have more on the matter.
