And then, and then they, and they can't, they can't ad lib.
They can't go off script at all.
And so we're sitting there and they get to this Q and a, like, so every kid talks for maybe like two, three minutes.
And then they get to the Q&A at the end and they take questions from their class.
And that was the fun part, of course, for the adults, because like I said, the kids don't know any more than what they what they literally wrote into their report.
One of the kids actually was just reading the slides with her back to the class.
It was the best thing I've ever seen.
And
As these kids are taking questions and the answers are just, you don't know what you're going to get.
Like one kid presented on zebras and somebody said, and she said, zebras are 700 pounds.
And then the question was, is every zebra exactly 700 pounds or are some of them different weights?
And she was like, I think some of them are different weights.
And so that was the kind of... Smart.
Good logical inference there.
It took a second.
And this is appropriate, right?
So it's heartwarming because these kids are just experiencing one of the worst parts of adulting, which is public speaking and then also answering questions that you didn't know were necessarily becoming.
And I had the most sick sense of deja vu, though, as I was watching these.
I was like, what does this feel like?
And I realized it reminded me of Trump's press conferences talking about Iran.
