"Father, I have studied a science which can make prove that these two chickens on the plate are really three
chickens."
     "Well," said the father, "this is something I would like very much to know."
     "There are two chickens on the plate," said the son, he took one of the chickens in this hand and said, "Here
is one more, and one and two makes three. So there are three chickens." Then the father took one of the
