A professor of mine in college (I'm currently a freshman — this happened a few months ago) told me a story _exactly_ like this — just at the University of Pittsburgh Masters in Education program and wherein nobody knew (or cared) that 1 was not a prime number.
I may be more dumbfounded now than I was sitting in his office during office hours... one is an anecdote, two is pattern.
