Half
Full or Half Empty?
A well-known proverb states: an optimistic would say a glass
is half full, while a pessimist would say it is half empty.
What would people of different professions and walks of life
say?
The government
would say that the glass is fuller than if the opposition
party were in power.
The opposition
would say that it is irrelevant because the present administration
has changed the way such volume statistics are collected.
The philosopher
would say that, if the glass was in the forest and no one
was there to see it, would it be half anything?
The economist
would say that, in real terms, the glass is 25 percent fuller
than at the same time last year.
The banker
would say that the glass has just under 50 percent of its
net worth in liquid assets.
The psychiatrist
would ask, "What did your mother say about the glass?"
The physicist
would say that the volume of this cylinder is divided into
two equal parts; one a colourless, odourless liquid, the other
a colourless, odourless gas. Thus the cylinder is neither
full nor empty. Rather, each half of the cylinder is full,
one with a gas, one with a liquid.
The seasoned
drinker would say that the glass doesn't have enough ice in
it.
