The CEO mandates the capture of an elephant.
The C programmer says: "Go to the Cape, walk the collection upwards, catch
every animal, and discard the ones that are not elephants."
The SQL programmer says: "Select * From Animals Where Trunk = True And Size
= Huge And Legs = 4."
The marketing guy says: "Catch a rabbit, paint it grey and call it a desktop
elephant."
