[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8424786, member: 7030563"] Agreed and for some real world examples: 1. Assuming you are familiar with american football - a 15 yard field goal is an "easy" field goal. College and pro kickers (who are experts) will make that kick 90% of the time or more. Your average athlete or high school soccer player can probably make it most of the time. Your average joe off the street will miss it quite often even though it is easy. 2. Driving a car down a residential road at 25mph without hitting a curb a parked care or a mailbox is very easy if you drive. However take a 12 year old (i.e. completely untrained) and put him behind the wheel and you are going to frequently run into something. 3. Starting a fire with 2 dry wooden sticks is easy. People were doing this back before writing was even invented and human civilization would have never made it to the civilization stage without it. This is an "easy" task (assuming the wood is not wet), but you would have a lot of people out there who have never done it that would fail if they tried it today. [/QUOTE]
