Astronomy 210L, fall semester 2012
Cuesta College, San Luis Obispo, CA
(Overheard as students are setting up telescopes on tripods in astronomy lab.)
Instructor: (Noticing students kneeling on the ground, looking through the telescope on a tripod with unextended legs.) "You'll probably be more comfortable if you extend the legs on the tripod."
Student: (Watching as instructor picks up tripod to extend legs.) "I didn't know it could do that--I've never used a tripod before in my life!"
