[Vision2020] Getting to draw the lines and pseudonyms

Isn't that sorta like:

A teacher places a chair on a table in the front of his classroom...he tells 
his students to take out a piece of paper and a pencil and being writing an 
essay proving to him the chair exists.  Expecting the class to take the full 
hour to complete the assignment, he settles in his seat with a book.  Less 
than two minutes later, a student gets up, gathers his books, takes his test 
paper to teacher and leaves the room.  The teacher reads the paper, chuckles 
and then promptly gives the student an "A" on the paper.  All the student 
had written, besides his name and the date was - "What chair?"

BTW - true story.
