That ^^ was somewhat of an inside joke/commentary/?? for "southerners" working up on the fly-in reserves. Generally speaking, when it came to sharing information, the locals played things pretty close to the vest.
This reminder (?) popped up on my Facebook just now:
I don't even remember the name of the book, but it had a rookie cop partnered with an old cop.
And the old guy said something along the lines of
"Ya wanna get the right answer, ya gotta ask the right question".
And instead of asking some punk in the neighborhood
Did ya kill the old guy who everybody thought was a wealthy miser?"
he asked the kid
"How much did ya get??"
And the kid said
"Thirty-nine dollars. He wasn't rich at all!"
Hey, that's a confession!

I have always determined how smart a person is by not what they know but the questions they ask. Really smart people ask really smart questions.

Heck, darn, I must be a genius. LOL.
When I was in college, classmates I didn't even know would come up to me and say, "OMG! You ask the best questions! I had no idea why I didn't understand the text, but his answer really clarified it for me!"
I was really great at asking questions. I was really poor at understanding the answers. LOL!
For 65 years I've had a friend named Al . He was a straight A student since I knew him in grade 8. We were neighbors and our parents use to visit each other often. My mom was brave enough to ask Al's mom what Al did to accomplish such high marks. My mom had to find out because her kid was as dumb as an ox. The answer to the question was that Al had a way of knowing what he didn't know before he studied for an exam. He was able to bypass the many pages he knew and concentrate on the few that he didn't know. Al is now 77 and still keeps his mind working at his full time profession in accounting and financial consulting. He originally completed a degree in Math and computer science.
