EXERCISE: A Quote For A Tale?

Original posting: Thu, 25 Oct 2001 22:40:00 -0400

Quoth the Reader's Digest (p. 59, July 1993)

Education: What's left when you've forgotten everything you ever learned.

Okay?  Now, there's a story lurking in that quote (maybe even two or three).  Take some characters, and put them in a place, and show us what's left when they've forgotten everything they ever learned.

Yeah!  That's the story.  Now tell us about it.
