Embrassing as this is I still believed it up to about 15. When we did geography exams (this is in the UK)you sometimes got given a map to work from. At the bottom there was a grid of 4 blocks of colour. If one of them hadn't printed properly it meant you might not get some of the details on the map and you might fail. Beside this it said @If 4 colours are not shown, please return the map to the invigilator@ I used to think the invigilator was the machine that printed the maps, not the teacher sitting at the front.....
