A small Indian tribe noticed one of their young men was showing signs of being exceptionally intelligent.
The council decided to pay his tuition and send him to the finest university in America.
Some years later he returned to the village, graduated with the highest of honors!
The tribe was so impressed they threw a huge welcome back party for him.
At the end of the ceremony, the council gathered around him.
"We have some bad news, while you were gone, our Chief passed away. However, his last request was that you would become the new Chief. Will you accept?"
"Yes, I would be honored!"
"Good, first action we need to take, winter is coming, the Chief always told us how much wood to store. What is your recommendation?"
He thought about it for a minute, realizing they didn't teach him a thing about fire wood at law school...
"Gather 1/2 again more than you did last year."
Later that day, he got to thinking, "What if that's not enough? My people will suffer, and blame me!"
So the next week he ordered them to gather 1/2 again more, just in case...
He was still uneasy, so he called the weather bureau. They told him to expect a bad winter.
So, next week, cut more wood...
He's still worried, called the weather bureau again. "We expect the worst winter in history!"
"Cut more wood!"
A week later, he calls the weather bureau again... "It's looking even worse!!!"
"How can this be? he asks them. "What are you basing your forecast on?"
"Well, we always watch the local Indian tribe, depending on how much wood they gather, we know how cold it will be!
