  As far as I can see, fish-teaching exercises are highly overrated.

  I once spent an entire month trying to teach Shakespeare to a school of
guppies.  By then end of it I was soaking wet, but not even one of them had
mastered the "To be or not to be..." soliloquy from Hamlet.

  That's the last time I try to teach a man to fish ...

  ... don't suppose they'd do any better with female authors either, though.

    cheers,
