     It's more practical with these issues if you explain what   
   you're trying to accomplish. Then people can brainstorm   
   the whole process. It also helps to weed out preconceptions,   
   like the man who's trying to figure out how to avoid getting   
   his newspaper wet, wtihout explaining that the problem is   
   a spraying kitchen faucet and not rain.
