This is a question Amazing displays of ignorance

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

Reminded me of an American barmaid
while on exercise in Hawaii, in the club on the Navy base. I asked for a "lemon, lime and bitters", she said they didn't have any bitters. When I pointed out a bottle of Angostura Bitters behind her, she said "no, that's SALT FREE" (it was written on the side)as if "salt free" was the product, not that the product was salt free.I couldn't convince her, it took 2 other bar staff to sort it out.

Okay, I'll have a lemon, lime and "salt free".
I'm also intrigued to know why it took two other bar staff to sort it out.

I think that
"American" might just explain it, but no she wouldn't accept my word or the word of just one colleague, she needed to make extra sure.
