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?

ah hah! Saw through your little trickyou used the terms 'necessarily' and 'if' as a conditional in the same testing hypothesis. Also you can explain all the rest away in terms of 'well the measurements didn't match our predicted results based on the theory but there's always some fudging room available based on Casimir fluctuations. Let's get it peer reviewed and coincidentally fund our research for another 12 months.
