Hi you two,

The Navy had a way of dealing with these academic issues that put both
of you to shame.

I once offered that stale observation of "leading a horse to water..."
to a Chief Bos'un's Mate. He, understandably, was not amused by the
lack of imagination, insight, invention, intelligence, or what-ever
was suppose to be the hallmark of my specialty and simply replied with
a ho-hum:
"You hold its head under water and suck on its ass."

Seems no one is interested in actually getting anything accomplished
when trading complaints is obviously more fun. ;-)
