"Alright" says the Admiral giving him his examination, "Here's the scenario - your close to the shore, and a massive bout of wind is driving your ship unstoppably towards the rocks, what do you do?"
"Well id probably attach a few reserve sails to the starboard side and see if i could turn her"
"Its impossible lad" The admiral says "The wind is too strong, your ship is still being blown towards the rocks, what do you do?"
Again, the new Captain says" Id probably attach a few more sails to the starboard side sir"
"Alright fine", says the Admiral "You do this, but the wind *still* picks up more, what do you do?
"Attach more sails to the starboard side sir"
The Admiral loses his temper "Where on earth are you getting all these sails from?"
"The same place youre getting all your wind from"
