America has its Idiots!

We had to have the garage door repaired.

The Sears repairman told us that one of our problems was that
we did not have a 'large' enough motor on the opener.

I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest one
Sears made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower.

He shook his head and said, 'Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower.'
I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4..

He said, 'NO, it's not..' Four is larger than two.'       

We haven't used Sears repair since.
