“I’ve a new one for you.”
“What is it?”
“It’s mathematics. If you fell from a height and landed in a heap on the ground, what velocity would you have been falling at as you were approaching the ground but just before you crashed into it?”
“I don’t think I can answer that.”
“It’s clever, isn’t it?”
“Maybe it is.”
“And there’s more. What velocity would you be moving at after you’ve crashed into the ground and are lying there in a heap on it?”
“You wouldn’t be at any velocity.”
“Expand please.”
“You’d be immobile. No movement, therefore no velocity.”
“Reasoning is a wonderful gift.”
