You see, the average student immediately goes back to some half remembered statement from a 7th grade teacher but the question that they answer is "What is the shortest distance between any two points?" rather than the one I asked. The answer to the question I asked? Zero.

It is as important to understand the question as it is to know the answer.
I'll have to remember that one for this semester.
