"A Sherlock Holmes Tale" Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go camping. That night, after a good meal and a bottle of wine, they go to sleep in a tent. At midnight, Sherlock wakes up Watson and says: "Watson, look at the sky, what can you see?" "Millions and millions of stars" "And what can you deduce from this?" "Well, from an astronomical point of view there are million of galaxies and billions of planets. From an astrological point of view I observe that Saturn is in the House of Lion. From the position of the stars I can deduce that it is around 12:15 at night. Metereologically speaking, tomorrow will be a nice day. In terms of theology I can now understand that God is all-knowing and omnipotent and that man is insignificant in terms of the inmmensity and perfection of the universe. What about you Holmes?" Holmes looks at him and says: "Watson, you idiot, somebody stole our tent!"
