IgnoranceI once was in a programming class where the task was "build a calculator". A student did one with buttons 1, 2, 3 all the way up to about 25 and then ran out of space on the screen. We've asked this before but liked it so much we're asking again: What's the best example of ignorance you've encountered?

another yank in venice (arf arf)me and the mrs went on a honeymoon trip around Italy. Finishing in Venice, the beautiful water based holiday destination. We all know venice and it's situation (water), so I won't bore you.
One morning we went to get the 'bus'. If you've been you'll know they have money saver travel tickets, hop on a boat/hop off as much as ya want. We had said tickets and were planning our day.
Over bounds a jolly fat american:
"Hey would you guys wanna buy a pair of day tickets from me and my wife?"
"no it's ok, we've got ours, thanks anyway".
"oh, ok, it's just my wife doesn't like boats".
"why did you come to venice then?"
cue tumbleweed etc etc.

I posted earlier about an American in Venice. It's really like they don't understand ANYTHING that hasn't got wheels. Maybe this is why so many of them are trying to replace their own feet with Segways and Parasite Trolleys...it's like they have all forgotten how their forefathers came to even BE a resident in the Native Indian homeland in the first place.
