Revision 1:
Mice have five appendages, and four of them
are feet.
Mgmt.
Comment: No discussion of fifth
appendage!
Revision 2:
Mice have five appendages; four of them are
feet and one is a tail.
Mgmt.
Comment: What? Feet with no legs?
Revision 3:
Mice have four legs, four feet and one tail
per unit-mouse.
Mgmt.
Comment: Confusing -- is that a total
of 9 appendages?
Revision 4:
Mice have four leg-foot assemblies and one
tail assembly per body.
Mgmt.
Comment: Does not fully discuss the
issue!
Revision 5:
Each mouse comes equipped with four legs and
a tail. Each leg is equipped with a foot at
the end opposite the body; the tail is not
equipped with a foot.
Mgmt.
Comment: Descriptive? Yes. Forceful?
NO!
Revision 6:
Allotment appendages for mice will be: Four
leg-foot assemblies, one tail. Deviation from
this policy is not permitted as it would
constitute misapportionment of scarce
appendage assets.
Mgmt.
Comment: Too authoritative; stifles
creativity!
Revision 7:
Mice have four feet; each foot is attached to
a small leg joined integrally with the
overall mouse structural sub-system. Also
attached to the mouse sub-system is a thin
tail, non-functional and ornamental in nature.
Mgmt.
Comment: Too verbose/scientific.
Answer the question!
FINAL REVISION APPROVED BY
MANAGEMENT: Mice have four feet.
