ghudson (Greg Hudson):
"I'm not very good at problems," admitted Milo.
"What a shame," sighed the Dodecahedron. "They're so
very useful. Why, did you know that if a beaver two feet long
with a tail a foot and a half long can build a dam twelve feet
high and six feet wide in two days, all you would need to
build Boulder Dam is a beaver sixty-eight feet long with a
fifty-one-foot tail?"
"Where would you find a beaver that big?" grumbled the
Humbug as his pencil point snapped.
"I'm sure I don't know," he replied, "but if you did,
you'd certainly know what to do with him."
"That's absurd," objected Milo, whose head was
spinning from all the numbers and questions.
"That may be true," he acknowledged, "but it's
completely accurate, and as long as the answer is right, who
cares it the question is wrong? If you want sense, you'll
have to make it yourself."
