The Problem With Semantics Part 4 Hearing What We Think We Hear

Hal Smith was the choir director at church. His wife Tilly, was the organist. As Tilly was practicing one day, a fellow church member came up behind her and asked her a question having to do with the choir. Not having the answer and raising her voice above the organ, Tilly replied, "Go to Hal!" The church split soon after that. To this day no one knows why.

Alternative ending: Hal and Tilly were asked to leave the church soon after that. To this day they don't know why.
