Grafton was telling us about a friend at school who brought in a caterpillar that was in the process of turning into a butterfly. So I said, "Oh, so it's in a cocoon!?" Irritated with my naive understanding of the metamorphosis process, Grafton snorts back, "It's not a cocoon, it's a chrysalis!"
Now, Dad, where did you go to school? Why, everyone knows that! (smile)
