This is a question Ignorance

I 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?

It's a reference - I assume - to Wordsworth's "The French Revolution as It Appeared to Enthusiasts at Its Commencement", ll 4-5:

"Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive,
But to be young was very heaven!"



Actually, come to think of it, it doesn't really work, does it?

I knew I knew it from somewhere,
Just finished the Romantics and the French/American revolutions at uni.

I think it works, anyway, as it sounded familiar.
