The Bathtub TestDuring a visit to the mental hospital, I asked the Director 'How do you determine whether or not a patient should be admitted to the hospital.''Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, then we give ateaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him to empty the bathtub.''Oh, I understand,' I said. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'***********************'No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the drain plug. Well....... Do you want a bed near the window?'
