In a seminar on gravity, the last person addressing the audience ended his speech this way:
"And since you've been taught the lessons of gravity tonight, I don't want to stand in the way to the delicious dinner that's waiting for you. Thank you very much for listening to me so patiently."Do you think the speaker is implying that the lessons were very boring?
Thanks,
Tom
