Urg...

Way too tired for my own good right now. Must have caffeine...

From one of the fora I frequent...

We have computers here in the library for kids to use, and at one point we were forced to put an "Out of Order" sign on one of them. A little girl, maybe 3 years old, couldn't understand why she couldn't use this computer.

I explained that the computer was broken, and showed her the sign attached to the monitor, with its picture of a sick computer. She stared at me for a moment. And then she stared at the sign. And then her face lit up. She reached out, ripped the "Out of Order" sign off the computer, and handed it to me. "Fixed it!" she declared, grinning.

Somehow, I felt, that really *should* have worked.
