....and before I sign off, one last anecdote about teaching:

I enjoy a brand of especially bitter pickled green Spanish olives.
This morning I emptied the jar into my hand and one olive fell onto to
the floor. As my dog (whose name should be "vacuum cleaner") rushed
up, I told her "No!" She looked at me, thought it over, and then bit
into the olive. She spat it out and gave me her "That was awfuil! Why
did you do that to me?" look.

Purely by accident, I dropped another olive on the floor. What did the
dog do?.... chomp, spit, another betrayed look.....

There's a moral about teaching buried in here somewhere.
