Student:  I like Coffeemaker A better.
Master:  Ah, so then you can tell the difference between Coffeemakers A
and B, then?
Student:  Of course I can.  I just told you I like A better.
Master:  Well then, here is a cup.  Does it come from A or B?
[Student answers]
[Repeat 400 times over a period of weeks]
Master: Grasshopper, you correctly identified the coffeemaker 200 times
out of 400.  Had you guessed without even tasting the coffee,
probability dictates that you would likely have been correct 1/2 of the
time.
Student:  Then I suppose that I really cannot tell the difference.
Master: Exactly.
