It is often thought that this defense was pioneered by Sergeant Schultz on Hogan's Heroes: "I see nuh-think! I hear nuh-think! I KNOW nuh-think! Now may I have another one of your Red Cross chocolate cookies? Wunderbar!!" But it was actually invented by Prissy in Gone with the Wind after passing herself off as an experienced midwife- until the time comes: "Lordy, we got to have a doctor! I don't know nuthin' 'bout birthin' babies!" It's funny how many people are saying "I don't know nuthin' 'bout no THG! I never even heard of it!" That's only because it wasn't given a name until identified in the UCLA lab. I'll bet Conte's lab had their own name for it. "Gimme summa that slimy green stuff! yummmmmm......."
