      There may be cake:

      Cake cake = (Cake) Object;

        I was talking to a few software developers, UML designers, network engineers and I discovered a common trait... when I asked them about a technology or process sometimes they looked up and to the left. TV shows say this is because the person is lying, but why would someone lie about Object inheritance? Then, I came across this link, and it suggests that they are a visual thinker and not necessarily lying... http://www.blifaloo.com/info/lies_eyes.php[^] What do you think?

          Basically you have to distinguish between lies and deception, because the two are NOT the same. Anyone who's read Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series will remember the Aes Sedai witches... They were all sworn (magically) to "never speak a word that is not true." Hence, they became experts at twisting the truth to mean whatever it wanted. Using only true statements, they would imply something completely different and false. Hence, the quote, "Are you sure the truth you heard is the truth you think you heard?" When dealing with idiots, it can be a fun little game... See how much you can warp their perception without actually uttering a false statement :)

          Why do I have an experiment in my mind now involving the back room...?

          If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                  Unfortunately, the "looking this way means you're lying" malarkey is all bollocks.
