Tit:\u00a0What would be a stupid question?<\/span>
\nTat:\u00a0‘When did the clock breakdown today?’<\/span>
\nTit:\u00a0Why is that a stupid question?<\/span>
\nTat:\u00a0Now, this is another stupid question! Think about it!
\nTit:<\/span> The first question is stupid only if the clock was working well before it broke down! Think about that!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Notes:<\/strong> ‘When did the clock breakdown today?’
\nThe answer is obvious – the time it stopped working is on the clock face. (E.g. 1.23pm)
\nBut this time is accurate only if it was telling the time accurately in the first place. (E.g. the real time could be 1.24pm then.)<\/p>\n
