Observing a light across the water, the captain had his signalman instruct the other vessel to change her course ten degrees south.The response was prompt:Change your course ten degrees north.""I am a captain," he responded testily."Change your course ten degrees south."The reply: "I'm a seaman first class--change your course north."The captain was furious."Change your course now.I'm on a battleship.""Change your course ten degrees north, sir--I'm in a lighthouse!"
