| 22. My high school physics teacher used to tell this story |

about how a friend of his (a university professor, I think) dealt with a group of noisy students who wouldn't quiet down at the beginning of class. He would start out speaking in a normal tone of voice, and say, "Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention?" When that didn't work, he would raise his voice, and say "Students!" And finally, when that didn't work either, he would yell "ASSHOLES!" at the top of his lungs. That got the desired result, and as the students stared in shocked silence, he would proceed to calmly say, "All right, now that you've correctly identified yourselves, let's get started." :P :hi:
