... Good anecdote, Frank, A classic example of Lateral Thinking in action. The student knew all too well what the professor wanted for an answer. Too bad the professor didn't see it that way. I think the professor was a little miffed that the student didn't ask him if HE would like the barometer instead of asking the superintendent. ;-) Sadly, I fear there probablly isn't enough Lateral Thinking going on in a lot of R&D labs.
