> Here is a true story someone found regarding exams at Cambridge University. It seems that during an examination one day a bright young student popped up and asked the proctor to bring him Cakes and Ale. The following dialog ensued:
> 
> Proctor: I beg your pardon?
> 
> Student: Sir, I request that you bring me Cakes and Ale.
> 
> Proctor: Sorry, no.
> 
> Student: Sir, I really must insist. I request and require that you bring me Cakes and Ale.

> At this point, the student produced a copy of the four hundred year old Laws of Cambridge, written in Latin and still nominally in effect, and pointed to the section which read (rough translation from the Latin):
> 
> ``Gentlemen sitting examinations may request and require Cakes and Ale.''
> 
> Pepsi and hamburgers were judged the modern equivalent, and the student sat there, writing his examination and happily slurping away.
> 
> Three weeks later the student was fined five pounds for not wearing a sword to the examination.
