Yup, along with "for sausages, read hostages" and other
good stuff. I thought everyone had heard of it but I
tend to forget that undergrads haven't been around as
long as us old fogeys, nor of course been through the
Brit eddication system and all that that entails.
Time stands still when you teach - the students are
always the same age, and you tend to forget that you
are decaying year by year.
