12,748. HAVING TO THINK

HAVING TO THINK
At first  on the outside, no 
one could figure anything 
out. A regular person was
often baffled by ordinary
things. Prism-rainbow on 
the inside wall  -  what is
that? And how did it get
there at all?
-
American colonists, coming
over on those ships, 1604 
and 1630, let's say, they were
constantly baffled, I am told, 
by cisterns of fresh cool water, 
or even glasses and cruets of
same, that would bead up on
the outside with  more water 
still! Just like a Puritan to go
searching for leaks and waste
all that time.
