Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie 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.

Captain John H Miller's hand shook violently in the dark church.It was an atmospheric, emotional scene that we were watching.
The soldiers were camping down for the night, to get some shut-eye before another day searching for Private Ryan.
We were enthralled by the scene, when our housemate P came into the living room and sat down.
We watched together for a few golden, silent minutes, before she asked
"Oh, is this the film with John Cleese in it?".
We were racking our brains for a WWII film that Mr Cleese starred in. One that she could have mistaken for Speilberg's epic.
"You know, the one where they're in a foreign country? Everybody is after him? Er... He's in a foreign country?"
she continued. Despite her accurate and descriptive questions, we were stumped. Until I asked
"Do you mean, 'The Life of Brian'?"
I'm fairly sure that Ryan was not a very naughty boy, and he was definitely not the Messiah.
