Sure wish you were around when the great, Smokey THE Bear vs Smokey Bear, debate was going on Mary.

This reminds me of my favorite Steven Wright skit. Not verbatim, but it goes like...

When I was a kid I was watching TV and Smokey the Bear came on and said "Only YOU can prevent forest fires", and I was like "Me?"... So there I sat every night by my window with my pail of water....

Which is precisely the confusion Mary is having. She is Steven confusing the convention "only you" with the literal "only YOU", and sitting there with her pail of water and the belief that its up to her alone to prevent forest fires....
