Pyat... is impressed

velvetpage demonstrated Venn diagrams to Elizabeth. Five minutes later - literally - Elizabeth produced a Venn diagram detailing the differences between novel and film versions of The Tale of Despereaux. I've not read the book or seen the film, but the common element is Despereaux himself, in the middle. The book is on the left, the movie is on the right. I know the movie has a cat in it, and the book doesn't.

You know, I didn't know what a Venn diagram was until I was in my 30s. Journalism degree, you see. :)

I was taught about them really young, like probably grade 2 or something.

That said, if I wasn't such a geek I probably wouldn't have remembered, since it was one of the many things that we were taught and then not touched on again for many years.
