I too believed that guerrilla warfare involved gorillas. When the newsreaders were reporting the latest guerrilla activity I used to watch the screen very intently, hoping to see the gorillas. I thought it was amazing, but none of the grown-ups were surprised so I assumed it must be normal. I thought I would be less amazed when I was a grown-up myself.
