And small magnets. And they say,n“These things may look like common objects to younBut in our opinion, they could be weapons.nOr they could be used to make weapons.nOr they could be used to ship weapons.nOr to store weapons.”nCause only an expert can see they might be weaponsnAnd only an expert can see they might be problems.nCause only an expert can deal with the problemnOnly an expert can deal with the problemnOnly an expert can deal with the problemnnAnd sometimes, if it’s really really really hot.nAnd it’s July in January.nAnd there’s no more snow and huge waves are wiping out cities.nAnd hurricanes are everywhere.nAnd everyone knows it’s a problem.nBut if some of the experts say it’s no problemnAnd other experts claim it’s no problemnOr explain why it’s no problemnThen it’s simply not a problem.nBut when an expert says it’s a problemnAnd makes a movie and wins an Oscar about the problemnThen all the other experts have to agree that it is most likely a problem.nCause only an expert can deal with the problemnOnly an expert can deal with the problemnOnly an expert can deal with the problemnnAnd even though a county can invade another country.nAnd flatten it. And ruin it.
