From the Files of Dr Stu Nata:
Recap of test results
I was testing Nutmeg who was training to become a detective.
To test his skill in recognizing a suspect, I showed Nutmeg a picture for 5 seconds and then hid it. "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"
Nutmeg answers, "That's easy, we'll catch him fast because he only has one eye!"
"Well...duh...that's because the picture I showed is his side profile."
Slightly flustered by this ridiculous response, I flashed the picture again for 5 seconds at Nutmeg and asked him, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"
Nutmeg smiles and says, "Ha! He'd be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!"
"What's the matter with you? Of course only one eye and one ear are showing because it's a picture of his side profile! Is that the best answer you can come up with?"
Extremely frustrated at this point, I showed the picture again and in my very testy testy voice asked, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?
I quickly added, "Think hard before giving me a stupid answer."
Nutmeg looked at the picture intently for a moment and said, "The suspect wears contact lenses."
I am surprised and speechless because I really don't know myself if the suspect wears contacts or not. "Well, that's an interesting answer. Wait here for a few minutes while I check his file and I'll get back to you on that."
I left the room and went to my office, checked the suspect's file on my computer.
"Wow! I can't believe it. It's TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work Nutmeg! How were you able to make such an astute observation?"
"That's easy," the Nutmeg replied. "He can't wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."
