Also, understanding something that is being explained is a far
cry from being able to explain it to someone else. In addition,
when you try to explain something to someone else, you will
frequently find that your understanding is not as complete as you
might think. Remember, the unicorn is based on the
misinterpretation of descriptions of the rhinoceros.
