An Incomplete Genius

Overheard at my Tuesday diner:

Person #1 with finality gives the full story of what happened to flight 370, declaring it to be in the Indian Ocean.

Person #2: They still don’t know for sure what happened or where it is, though.

Person 1: Yes they do. I promise that’s what happened and it is in the Indian Ocean. They just won’t confirm it for legal reasons.

Person 2: I don’t know. Maybe you’re right. I’m tired of the whole thing. What part of the Indian Ocean do you think it’s in?

Person 1: I’m not very good at geography.
