I had noticed a certain tendency in this frequent .sig quote from Robert Heinlein. Crgre's comment about some bozo's resume gave me an opening to exaggerate grossly:

(List of tools)

I think I can use most of the tools listed. I think that I can use a few more than the genius guy can:

Chopsticks, coin-operated vending machine, index card-based file system, alto clarinet, reverb pedal, caller ID, spork, can opener, self-sealing paper envelope, paper bag, plastic bag, ice cream cone.

It is important to make lists like this one.

Everyone should be able to: fire a gun, clean a gun, buy guns from somebody else, treat gunshot wounds, comfort the dying who have been shot by guns, field-strip a gun, construct a gun from spare household items, draw a picture of a gun, write about guns, complain about gun laws on Usenet, collect guns, sell guns on eBay, and write poetry about guns. Specialization is for insects.
