PHB

Now, explain to the PHB how L has nine levels, or 'circles'. And how he will have to complete each before the project is complete.

Then, wait for the blank expression.

It's nice of Simon...

... to use the analogy of a toilet to clarify the story to us, readers.

The looks from my colleagues were priceless when I couldn't contain myself anymore.
