After all he was STCW-95 Certified. One day, while sailing the Seven Seas, his lookout spotted a school of information seeking penguins approaching, and the crew became frantic. Captain Pinocchio bellowed, "Bring me my red shirt!" The first mate quickly retrieved the captain's red shirt, and while wearing it, the Captain led his crew into an attempt to defeat the mighty information seeking penguins. That evening, all the men sat around on deck recounting what they thought was the triumph over earlier knowledge discovery research by the information seeking penguins. One of the crew asked Captain Pinocchio, "Sir, why did you call for your red shirt?" Captain Pinocchio replied, "If I were to be discovered and wounded by the artificial intelligence found, the virtual reality of the red shirt would not show my blood or that I needed integrated health care. Thus, you men would continue to fight the information seeking penguins, unafraid." All of the men sat and marveled at the courage of such a manly man's man way of attempting to avoid discovery. As dawn came the next morning, the lookout spotted not one, not two, but several schools of penguins from various parts of the world approaching seeking information access. The crew stared in worshipful silence at the Captain and waited for his usual orders. Captain Pinocchio gazed with steely eyes upon the computational schools of information seeking penguins around his ship, and without fear, turned and calmly shouted, "Get me my brown pants."
