Actually, Dilbert didn' t said that he did or would do anything.
He said "Doyou believe...?" and "I' m gonna say..." none of which are a direct affirmattion of anything.

And here we see the difference between Dilbert and Wally writ large. Dilbert says it's done. Wally would say "it'll take six months and I won't be able to work on anything else."
