I heard about some scientist from New York who deiced to do some pure
research on flies.  That caught one buzzing around their lab, set in on
the counter and yelled, "JUMP!" as they slammed their hands on the
counter around the fly.  Of course it jumped up and flew away.  They
scrambled over all over the lab until they finally caught the fly.  One
of them carefully pulled a leg off the fly, and they set it on the
counter.  They yelled, "JUMP!" as they slammed their hands on the
counter around the fly.  Of course it jumped up and flew away.  They
scrambled over all over the lab until they finally caught the fly again.
  One of them carefully pulled another leg off the fly, and they set it
on the counter.  They yelled, "JUMP!" as they slammed their hands on the
counter around the fly.  Of course it jumped up and flew away.

Pretty soon they had gotten down to the last leg.  One of them carefully
pulled the last leg off the fly.  They yelled, "JUMP!" as they slammed
their hands on the counter around the fly, and the fly just sat there.
They tried it again. They yelled, "JUMP!" as they slammed their hands on
the counter around the fly, and the fly just sat there.  After a third
time they decided they had enough data to write up a conclusion.  A fly
with no legs can not hear.
