I agree.

Interesting. Can you say more. Never mind the chickens.
The fact that the exception is called an exception shows there is a rule it is an exception to. People argue about exceptions as if their existence trumps the rule. But they actually establish it. For example, if I say all swans are white and you respond that 1% are not, you've just said that 99% of the time I'm right. I'll take that any day.

People who are always pointing out exceptions are the same people who play the lottery. Overall, what is possible is not as important as what is likely. The more someone tends to make a big deal about exceptions the more you are dealing with a theoretician and not a pragmatist.
