There Are No Dumb Questions

Is there a such thing as no dumb questions? I've taken this phrase so many ways but never the way I took it over the weekend when I was asked a question. First I must say, I understand what one person is knowledgeable about, doesn't mean another person is.



"Do hens nurse their chicks?"



Yes, this was the question that was asked. I repeat - "Do hens nurse their chicks?"



I quickly realized the person that asked me this was serious, which then I had to quickly wipe the "WTH" look off my face and answer (seriously).

"No"

I sat waiting for the next question, when the person simply said "oh" and didn't ask for an explanation.
