>> 'Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a
>> teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty
>> the bathtub.'
>>

>> bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'
>>
>> ''No,' said the Director. 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you
>> want a bed near the window?'
