He hopped down from the monument, the ends of his hair dripping rain. It slid down his face, which was dark as a Spaniard's.

• Explicit knowledge, conventionally delivered like pizza (neat boxes with toppings of concepts, theories, best practices and war stories), is consumed by the brain but not metabolized into action.
