Bathtub




 
The Bathtub Test
 
During a visit to the mental asylum, I asked the director, How do you
determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?"
 
'Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a
teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to
empty the bathtub.'
 
'Oh, I understand,' I said. 'A normal person would use the bucket
because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'
 
'No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug.. Do you
want a bed near the window?'
 
 
ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE?
