The teacher of the Earth Science class was lecturing on map reading. He spent
the class explaining about latitude, longitude, degrees, and minutes. Towards
the end of class, the teacher asked his students, “Suppose I asked you to meet
me for lunch at 23 degrees, 4 minutes north latitude and 45 degrees, 15 minutes
east longitude…” A student’s voice broke the confused silence, and
volunteered, “I guess you’d be eating alone, sir.”
